Abstract:

Over the past few decades the use of industrial robots has increased the efficiency as well as competitiveness of many companies. Despite this fact, in many cases, robot automation investments are considered to be technically challenging. In addition, for most small and medium sized enterprises (SME) this process is associated with high costs. Due to their continuously changing product lines, reprogramming costs are likely to exceed installation costs by a large margin. Furthermore, traditional programming methods for industrial robots are too complex for an inexperienced robot programmer, thu

Um Gesten intuitiv benutzen zukönnen und Gesten, die von Robotern ausgeführt werden, zu verstehen, ist es notwendig, Zuordnungen zwischen Gesten und den damit verbundenen Bedeutungen zu definieren -- ein Gestenvokabular.

The demand for robots to work in environments together with humans is growing. This calls for new requirements on robots systems, such as the need to be perceived as responsive and accurate in human interactions.

The AI methods that were used is a Long Short Term Memory(LSTM) network and an artificial neural network(ANN).

Abstract:

In the future, robots will become our companions and co-workers. They will gradually appear in our environment, to help elderly or disabled people or to perform repetitive or unsafe tasks. However, we are still far from a real autonomous robot, which would be able to act in a natural, efficient and secure manner with humans. To endow robots with the capacity to act naturally with human, it is important to study, first, how humans act together. Consequently, this manuscript starts with a state of the art on joint action in psychology and philosophy before presenting the implementation of the pr

Abstract:

Face-to-face human communication is a multimodal and incremental process. Humans employ different information channels (modalities) for their communication. Since some of these modalities are more error-prone to specic type of data, a multimodal communication can benefit from strengths of each modality and therefore reduce ambiguities during the interaction. Such interfaces can be applied to intelligent robots who operate in close relation with humans. With this approach, robots can communicate with their human colleagues in the same way they communicate with each other, thus leading to an ea

Abstract:

La plupart des systèmes d'apprentissage interactifs actuels s'appuient sur des protocoles prédéfinis qui peuvent être contraignants pour l'utilisateur. Cette thèse aborde le problème de l'interprétation des instructions, afin de relâcher la contrainte de prédéterminer leurs significations. Nous proposons un système permettant à un humain de guider l'apprentissage d'un robot, à travers des instructions non labellisées. Notre approche consiste à ancrer la signification des signaux instructifs dans le processus d'apprentissage de la tâche et à les utiliser simultanément pour guider l'apprentissag

Abstract:

This article investigates the possibilities of human-humanoid interaction with robots whose computational power is limited. The project has been carried during a year of work at the Computer and Robot Vision Laboratory (VisLab), part of the Institute for Systems and Robotics in Lisbon, Portugal. Communication, the basis of interaction, is simultaneously visual, verbal, and gestural. The robot's algorithm provides users a natural language communication, being able to catch and understand the person’s needs and feelings. The design of the system should, consequently, give it the capability to d

Abstract:

Intelligent devices are quickly becoming necessities to support our activities during both work and play. We are already bound in a symbiotic relationship with these devices. An unfortunate effect of the pervasiveness of intelligent devices is the substantial investment of our time and effort to communicate intent. Even though our increasing reliance on these intelligent devices is inevitable, the limits of conventional methods for devices to perceive human expression hinders communication efficiency. These constraints restrict the usefulness of intelligent devices to support our a

Abstract:

This thesis is about the collaboration and interaction between a robot and a human agent. The goal is to use the robot as a coworker, by implementing the premises of an interaction system that would make the interaction as natural as possible. This involves that the robot has a vision system that allows understanding of the intentions of the human. This thesis work is intended to be part of a larger project aimed at extending the competences of the programmable industrial robot, Baxter, made by Rethink Robotics. Due to the limited vision abilities of this robot, a Kinect camera is added on the

De par sa nature il réunit des chercheurs venant de domaines variés, tels que psychologie, sociologie et, bien entendu, robotique. Ensemble, ils définissent et dessinent les robots avec lesquels nous interagirons dans notre quotidien.Comme humains et robots commencent à travailler en environnement partagés, la diversité des tâches qu’ils peuvent accomplir augmente drastiquement. Cela créé de nombreux défis et questions qu’il nous faut adresser, en terme de sécurité et d’acceptation des sys

Abstract:

Swarm robots are not yet ready to work in real world environments in spaces shared with humans. The real world is unpredictable, complex and dynamic, and swarm systems still are unable to adapt to unexpected situations. However, if humans were able to share their experience and knowledge with these systems, swarm robots could be one step closer to work outside the research labs. To achieve this, research must be done challenging human interaction with more realistic real world environment constraints. This thesis presents a series of studies that explore how human operators with limited situat
