Locating and identifying objects in vision-denied environments is a critical challenge for intelligent robot systems. To address the limitation of vision, we present a tactile-only method for object search and recognition using custom tactile skin sensors on robot hands. The method involves searchin…
Driven by the need for rapid and reliable heavy payload transport in logistics and manufacturing, researchers are increasingly exploring early applications of humanoid robotics in these domains. Although bipedal locomotion excels on challenging terrain, wheeled modes of transportation remain signifi
Intuitive teleoperation enables operators to embody remote robots, providing the sensation that the robot is part of their own body during control. The sense of agency (SoA), i.e., the feeling of controlling the robot, contributes to enhanced motivation and embodiment during teleoperation. However,
Robots that autonomously operate in human living environments require the ability to adapt to unpredictable changes and flexibly handle a variety of tasks. Particularly, coordinated bimanual motions are essential for enabling tasks that are difficult with just one hand, such as grasping bulky object…
