CapSense: A Real-Time Capacitive Sensor Simulation Framework for Physical Human-Robot Interaction

RA-L 2022

This letter presents CapSense, a real-time open-source capacitive sensor simulation framework for robotic applications. CapSense provides raw data of capacitive proximity sensors based on a fast and efficient 3D finite-element method (FEM) implementation. The proposed framework is interfaced to off-

A Unified Perception Benchmark for Capacitive Proximity Sensing Towards Safe Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC)

ICRA 2021poster

During the co-presence of human workers and robots, measures are required to avoid injuries from undesired contacts. Capacitive Proximity Sensors (CPSs) offer a cost-effective solution to cover the entire robot manipulator with fast close-range perception for HRC tasks, closing the perception gap be…

Radar Based Target Tracking and Classification for Efficient Robot Speed Control in Fenceless Environments

IROS 2021poster

Awareness of its surroundings is a crucial capability for a robot meant to be working alongside other robots or human operators. When considering safety norms and modalities, in particular the Speed and Separation Monitoring (SSM), proper proximity information can make the difference in the overall…
