Overcoming Hand and Arm Occlusion in Human-to-Robot Handovers: Predicting Safe Poses with a Multimodal DNN Regression Model

Handovers play a key role in human-robot interactions. However, current research focuses on visible-hand handovers, thereby heavily relying on hand detection. Large objects in human-robot interactions present a unique challenge: they inherently block the person’s hands and arms from the robot's view…
