Coördinating human-robot communication
As robots begin to emerge from the cloisters of industrial and military applications and enter the realms of coöperative partners for people, one of the most important facets of human-robot interaction (HRI) will be communication. This can not merely be summarized in terms of the ongoing …

Exploring mixed reality robot communication under different types of mental workload
… gestures such as pointing and presenting by robots enables more effective and natural human-robot interaction. However, not all robots come equipped with gestural capabilities. Recent advances in augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) provide powerful new forms of deictic gestures in …

Enabling human-robot cooperation in scientific exploration of bandwidth-limited environments
… are very hostile to humans, which makes robotic exploration the first and often the only option. However, they also impose restrictive limits on how much communication is possible, creating challenges in implementing remote command and control. We propose an approach to enable more …

Abstractions, Analysis Techniques, and Synthesis of Scalable Control Strategies for Robot Swarms
… very efficiently and robustly by a swarm robotic system. Such a system would consist of hundreds or thousands of anonymous, resource-constrained robots that operate autonomously, with little to no direct human supervision. The massive parallelism of a swarm would allow it to perform …

Improving Interactions with Healthcare Robots
Background and Purpose: Social robots are currently being developed for use in healthcare environments. To date, little research has investigated how healthcare robots should behave in order to promote positive patient outcomes. Research on physician behaviour may inform the design of healthcare …

Mobile ad hoc networks for intelligent systems
… work has focused on many of the layers of the communications architecture. This research intends to investigate applications of MANET for intelligent systems, including intelligent transportation system (ITS), sensor network and mobile intelligent robot network, and propose some approaches to …

Assembly Video Understanding for Human-Robot Collaboration: Methods and Applications
The human-robot relationship is evolving from coexistence and cooperation to collaboration, compassion, and coevolution. In this process, robots are transitioning from machines focused solely on production tasks to reliable partners that prioritise human needs and well-being. This shift requires …

Graph Neural Networks for Multi-Robot Coordination
… framework that can learn to communicate between robots based on Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) towards better individual decision-making given its local information in a decentralized manner. This framework is composed of an encoder (i.e. Convolutional Neural Network) that extracts adequate …

Reducing Communication Delay Variability for a Group of Robots
<p>A novel architecture is presented for reducing communication delay variability for a group of robots. This architecture relies on using three components: a microprocessor architecture that allows deterministic real-time tasks; an event-based communication protocol in which nodes transmit in a …
