Extraction of Person-Specific Motion Style based on a Task Model and Imitation by Humanoid Robot
In this paper, we present a humanoid robot which extracts and imitates the person-specific differences in motions, which we will call style.
Task Assignment and Trajectory Optimization for Displaying Stick Figure Animations with Multiple Mobile Robots
This paper presents an offline, centralized motion planning algorithm for displaying stick figure animations by a group of mobile robots equipped with a light source.
A Low-Friction Passive Fluid Transmission and Fluid-Tendon Soft Actuator
Sit-to-Stand Task on a Humanoid Robot from Human Demonstration
In this work, we perform the challenging task of a humanoid robot standing up from a chair.
Playing Catch and Juggling with a Humanoid Robot
Entertainment robots in theme park environments typically do not allow for physical interaction and contact with guests. However, catching and throwing back objects is one form of physical engagement that still maintains a safe distance between the robot and participants. Using a theme park type animatronic humanoid robot, we developed a test bed for a throwing and catching game scenario.
Practical Kinematic and Dynamic Calibration Methods for Force-Controlled Humanoid Robots
This paper presents methods and experimental results regarding the identification of kinematic and dynamic parameters of force-controlled biped humanoid robots. We first describe a kinematic calibration method to estimate joint angle sensor offsets. The method is practical in the sense that it only uses joint angle and link orientation sensors, which most humanoid robots are equipped with.
Optimal Reciprocal Collision Avoidance for Multiple Non-Holonomic Robots
In this paper, an optimal method for distributed collision avoidance among multiple non-holonomic robots is presented in theory and experiments.
Multi-Robot System for Artistic Pattern Formation
This paper describes work on multi-robot pattern formation. Arbitrary target patterns are represented with an optimal robot deployment, using a method that is independent of the number of robots. Furthermore, the trajectories are visually appealing in the sense of being smooth, oscillation free, and showing fast convergence.
Reciprocal Collision Avoidance for Multiple Car-like Robots
In this paper, a method for distributed reciprocal collision avoidance among multiple non-holonomic robots with bike kinematics is presented.
Human Motion Tracking Control with Strict Contact Force Constraints for Floating-Base Humanoid Robots
