A Versatile Underactuated Robotic Hand for Cloth Manipulation

Xinhao Chen, Alberto Elías Petrilli Barceló, Saeed Shiry Ghidary, Dayuan Chen, Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Yasuhisa Hirata
ICRA 2026poster

Traditional cloth manipulation often employs low- DOF grippers to simplify hardware. However, this approach presents significant challenges for algorithms due to the complex and dynamic behavior of fabrics. To address these limitations, we propose a novel approach based on a human-hand-like de- sign…

Real-Time Geometric-Registration-Based Precision Localization for Autonomous Docking in Unstructured Factory Environment

Sebastian Fernando Chinchilla Gutierrez, Manaru Watanabe, Masahiro Ooyama, Takayuki Yamada, Tomoaki Yamada, Naoto Toshiki +4
ICRA 2026poster

In factory distribution processes, autonomous mobile robots must dock precisely at base stations. However, this task is challenging due to the dynamic and unstructured nature of factory environments, as well as the sparse point clouds caused by sensor occlusions and distance limitations. To address …

Enhancing Object Search in Indoor Spaces via Personalized Object-Factored Ontologies

Akash Chikhalikar, Ankit A. Ravankar, Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Yasuhisa Hirata
IROS 2025

Personalization is critical for the advancement of service robots. Robots need to develop tailored understandings of the environments they are put in. Moreover, they need to be aware of changes in the environment to facilitate long-term deployment. Long-Term understanding as well as personalization

Task Planning for a Factory Robot Using Large Language Model

Yosuke Tsushima, Shu Yamamoto, Ankit A. Ravankar, Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Yasuhisa Hirata
RA-L 2025

In recent years, automation has significantly advanced the automobile manufacturing industry. However, many tasks still involve human intervention, so there is a demand for the development of robots to support workers. Additionally, as the human-centric approach, such as Industry 5.0, is gaining att

Concept and Prototype Development of Adaptive Touch Walking Support Robot for Maximizing Human Physical Potential

Junya Terayama, Ankit A. Ravankar, Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Seyed Amir Tafrishi, Yasuhisa Hirata
RA-L 2024

We propose a new walking support robot concept, “Nimbus Guardian,” designed to enhance the mobility of both healthy and frail elderly individuals who can walk independently. The proposed robot differs from traditional walker-type or cane-type aids by offering adaptive, minimal touch support based on

A Novel Assistive Controller Based on Differential Geometry for Users of the Differential-Drive Wheeled Mobile Robots

Seyed Amir Tafrishi, Ankit A. Ravankar, Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Yasuhisa Hirata
ICRA 2022poster

Certain wheeled mobile robots e.g., electric wheelchairs, can operate through indirect joystick controls from users. Correct steering angle becomes essential when the user should determine the vehicle direction and velocity, in particular for differential wheeled vehicles since the vehicle velocity…

Development and Control of Robot Hand with Finger Camera for Garment Handling Tasks

Hirokazu Kondo, Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Yasuhisa Hirata
IROS 2022poster

Robotic automation is steadily growing in different industries around the world. However, in some industries, such as garment manufacturing, most tasks are still predominantly manual, due to the flexible nature of clothes. Garment and clothes are easily deformed when some force is applied, so it is…

Control and Evaluation of Body Weight Support Walker for Overground Gait Training

Zonghao Dong, Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Yasuhisa Hirata
RA-L 2021

Gait rehabilitation training under robot-assisted partial Body Weight Support (BWS) is a promising technique that helps patients who suffer from a traumatic or congenital brain injury like stroke or cerebral palsy to become independent in daily life activities. In recent years, robotic BWS systems h

RoVaLL: Design and Development of a Multi-Terrain Towed Robot With Variable Lug-Length Wheels

Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Shin Matsuzaki, Yasuhisa Hirata
RA-L 2020

Robotic systems play a very important role in exploration, allowing us to reach places that would otherwise be unsafe or unreachable to humans, such as volcanic areas, disaster sites or unknown areas in other planets. As the area to be explored increases, so does the time it takes for robots to expl

Wide Area Exploration System Using Passive-Follower Robots Towed by Multiple Winches

Jose Victorio Salazar Luces, Manami Hoshi, Yasuhisa Hirata
RA-L 2020

In this study, we propose a wide area exploration system that consists on passive wheeled robots equipped with exploration sensors that are pulled from a high position with wires fed out from two winches. The robots are driven by the pulling force from the winches and they are able to steer by contr
