Virtual borders are an opportunity to allow users the interactive restriction of their mobile robots' workspaces, e.g. to avoid navigation errors or to exclude certain areas from working. Currently, works in this field have focused on human-robot interaction (HRI) methods to restrict the workspace.…
In times of more and more complex interaction techniques, we point out the powerfulness of colored light as a simple and cheap feedback mechanism. Since it is visible over a distance and does not interfere with other modalities, it is especially interesting for mobile robots. In an online survey, we…
We address the problem of interactively controlling the workspace of a mobile robot to ensure a human-aware navigation. This is especially of relevance for non-expert users living in human-robot shared spaces, e.g. home environments, since they want to keep the control of their mobile robots, such a…
