Distributed Virtual Model Control for Scalable Human-Robot Collaboration in Shared Workspace

Yi Zhang, Omar Faris, Chapa Sirithunge, Kai-Fung Chu, Fumiya Iida, Fulvio Forni

ICRA 2026poster

We present a decentralized, agent agnostic, and safety-aware control framework for human–robot collaboration based on Virtual Model Control (VMC). In our approach, both humans and robots are embedded in the same virtual-component-shaped workspace, where motion is the result of the interaction with v…

Reservoir Computing for Torque-Restricted Pendulum Control

Fan Ye, Timothy Bonner, Arsen Abdulali, Kai-Fung Chu, Fumiya Iida

IROS 2025

Torque-restricted control remains a significant challenge in robotics, often necessitating precise modeling or large amounts of data for effective controller design. To address this problem, we introduce a novel training method that utilizes a Reservoir Computing (RC) framework to serve as a model-f
