Dynamic hand gesture recognition using a stretchable multi-layer capacitive array, proximity sensing, and a SVM classifier

IROS 2021poster

Hand Gesture Recognition (HGR) has application in Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs), to control robots, games, and machines. Here we demonstrate a soft-matter multi-layer printed electronic circuit, that can be used to detect the human gesture without the need for physical contact, except for unlockin…

Water Based Magnification of Capacitive Proximity Sensors: Water Containers as Passive Human Detectors

IROS 2020poster

Sensors that detect human presence received an increasing attention due to the recent advances in smart homes, collaborative fabrication cells, and human robot interaction. These sensors can be used in collaborative robot cells and mobile robots, in order to increase the robot awareness about the pr…
