How can we enable users to create effective, perception-driven task plans for collaborative robots? We conducted a 35-person user study with the Behavior Tree-based CoSTAR system to determine which strategies for end user creation of generalizable robot task plans are most usable and effctive. CoSTA…
For collaborative robots to become useful, end users who are not robotics experts must be able to instruct them to perform a variety of tasks. With this goal in mind, we developed a system for end-user creation of robust task plans with a broad range of capabilities. CoSTAR: the Collaborative System…
We propose a learning-from-demonstration approach for grounding actions from expert data and an algorithm for using these actions to perform a task in new environments. Our approach is based on an application of sampling-based motion planning to search through the tree of discrete, high-level action…
