Perception for the manipulation of socks
2011
2011 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems
We consider the perceptual challenges inherent in the robotic manipulation of previously unseen socks, with the end goal of manipulation by a household robot for laundry. ...
We describe novel approaches to two key perceptual problems: (i) Inferring the configuration of the sock, and (ii) determining which socks should be paired together. ...
Indeed, the high variability in, for example, household environments, poses a number of challenges to robotic perception and manipulation. ...

Rigid and non-rigid classification using interactive perception
2010
2010 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems
This paper explores the benefits of combining the two by addressing the problem of classifying unknown objects, such as found in service robot applications. ...
Robotics research tends to focus upon either noncontact sensing or machine manipulation, but not both. ...

A perceptual interface for vision substitution in a color matching experiment
2008
2008 IEEE International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence)
We introduce an experiment in which several participants try to match pairs of colored socks by pointing a head mounted camera and by listening to the generated sounds. ...
Our experiments demonstrated that blindfolded individuals were able to accurately match pairs of colored socks. ...
In the See ColOr project, general targeted applications are the search for items of particular interest for blind users, the manipulation of objects and the navigation in an unknown environment. ...

Acute effects of wearing compression knee-length socks on ankle joint position sense in community-dwelling older adults
2021
PLoS ONE
Functional proprioceptive information is required to allow an individual to interact with the environment effectively for everyday activities such as locomotion and object manipulation. ...
Among the KLS of various compression levels, results suggested that only wearing clinical compression KLS (20–30 mmHg) improved the precision of estimation of ankle joint plantar flexion movement, by reducing ...
Acknowledgments We acknowledge the support from the compression sock manufacturer: ZeroPoint, Finland (www.zp.fi). ...

POMDP approach to robotized clothes separation
2012
2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems
Given the great complexity of accurately modeling deformable objects, their manipulation seems to call for a rather different approach. ...
Experimental results show the promise of the approach since more than 95% certainty of having isolated a piece of clothing is reached in an average of four steps for quite entangled initial clothing configurations ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENT The authors would like to thank J.L. Rivero for his help in performing the experiments, and A. Ramisa for providing the code of the wrinkledness detector. ...

Classification of Clothing Using Midlevel Layers
2013
ISRN Robotics
Experiments demonstrate the ability of the system to efficiently classify each article of clothing into one of seven categories (pants, shorts, shirts, socks, dresses, cloths, or jackets). ...
The contribution of this paper is a novel approach of classification termed L-M-H, more specifically LC-S-H for clothing classification. ...

Virus interferes with host-seeking behaviour of mosquito
2017
Journal of Experimental Biology
Pathogen manipulation of the hostseeking behaviour of vectors towards susceptible hosts is supposedly beneficial for transmission. ...
For West Nile virus (WNV), manipulation of the host-seeking behaviour of the main mosquito vector towards birds would be advantageous, because mammals are dead-end hosts. ...

Using depth and appearance features for informed robot grasping of highly wrinkled clothes
2012
2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation
Detecting grasping points is a key problem in cloth manipulation. ...
Most current approaches follow a multiple regrasp strategy for this purpose, in which clothes are sequentially grasped from different points until one of them yields to a desired configuration. ...
More related to our work, in [2] the authors use state-ofthe-art computer vision techniques for the manipulation of socks. ...
