Machine Learning-Based Cognitive Position and Force Controls for Power-Assisted Human–Robot Collaborative Manipulation
2021
Machines
We also included a human factor, such as weight perception (a cognitive cue), in the robotic system dynamics and derived several position and force control strategies/methods for the system based on the ...
Hence, we present a 1-DoF (degree of freedom) testbed power assist robotic system for lifting different objects. ...

Following human guidance to cooperatively carry a large object
2011
2011 11th IEEE-RAS International Conference on Humanoid Robots
Carrying a large object like a table is a task that cannot be solved by a single robot or a single human, but that requires two workers, for example one human and one robot. ...
This real-time object pose estimate is suitable for approaching and grasping it, as well as for the detection of object lifting and lowering to the ground again. ...
The robot can also judge when the table is lifted or put down by the human user through measuring its pitch rotation. ...

To Afford or Not to Afford: A New Formalization of Affordances Toward Affordance-Based Robot Control
2007
Adaptive Behavior
Although introduced in psychology, the concept influenced studies in other fields ranging from human-computer interaction to autonomous robotics. ...
We point out that there are three, not one, perspectives from which to view affordances and that much of the confusion regarding discussions on the concept has arisen from this. ...
Last but not least, we would like to thank Tony Chemero and our anonymous reviewer, for providing constructive comments that led to the clarification of the stance of our formalism against the Gibsonian ...

A Framework for Sensorimotor Cross-Perception and Cross-Behavior Knowledge Transfer for Object Categorization
2020
Frontiers in Robotics and AI
From an early age, humans learn to develop an intuition for the physical nature of the objects around them by using exploratory behaviors. ...
The main hypothesis behind our approach is that if two or more robots share multi-sensory object observations of a shared set of objects, then those observations can be used to establish mappings between ...
For example, to detect whether a container is full or empty, a human may lift it; to perceive whether a ball is soft or hard, a human may squeeze it (Gibson, 1988) . ...
