Attention serves as a critical antecedent to social presence, which fundamentally influences acceptance, trust, and overall interaction quality in human-robot interaction (HRI). This paper investigates the development of a gaze modulation framework that enables robots to strategically influence huma
In human-robot collaboration (HRC) settings, hand motion intention prediction (HMIP) plays a pivotal role in ensuring prompt decision-making, safety, and an intuitive collaboration experience. Precise and robust HMIP with low computational resources remains a challenge due to the stochastic nature o…
This paper presents a novel localisation framework based on an omnidirectional camera, targeted at outdoor urban environments. Bearing only information to persistent and easily observable high-level semantic landmarks (such as lamp-posts, street-signs and trees) are perceived using a Convolutional N…
The main contribution of this paper is a novel Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) based localisation scheme that fuses two complementary approaches to outdoor vision based localisation. This EKF is aided by a front end consisting of two Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) that provide the necessary perce…
