What are the important technologies for bin picking? Technology analysis of robots in competitions based on a set of performance metrics
Masahiro Fujita,Yukiyasu Domae,Akio Noda,Gustavo Alfonso Garcia Ricardez,Tatsuya Nagatani,Andy Zeng,Shuran Song,Alberto Rodriguez,Albert Causo,I-Ming Chen,Tsukasa Ogasawara +10 more
TL;DR: This paper proposes a set of performance metrics selected in terms of actual field use as a solution to clarify the important technologies in bin picking and uses the selected metrics to compare the four original robot systems, which achieved the best performance in the Stow task of the Amazon Robotics Challenge 2017.
Journal ArticleDOI
System for augmented human–robot interaction through mixed reality and robot training by non-experts in customer service environments
L. El Hafi,Shota Isobe,Y. Tabuchi,Yuki Katsumata,H. Nakamura,T. Fukui,T. Matsuo,Gustavo Alfonso Garcia Ricardez,Masaki Yamamoto,Akira Taniguchi,Yoshinobu Hagiwara,Tadahiro Taniguchi +11 more
TL;DR: A complete robot system that has been given the highest evaluation score at the Customer Interaction Task of the Future Convenience Store Challenge at the World Robot Summit 2018 is presented, which implements several key technologies including a hierarchical spatial concepts formation for general robot task planning and a mixed reality interface to enable users to intuitively visualize the current state of the robot perception and naturally interact with it.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating quality in human-robot interaction: A systematic search and classification of performance and human-centered factors, measures and metrics towards an industry 5.0
Enrique Coronado,Takuya Kiyokawa,Gustavo Alfonso Garcia Ricardez,Ixchel G. Ramirez-Alpizar,Gentiane Venture,Natsuki Yamanobe +5 more
TL;DR: A literature review of the different aspects concerning the problem of quality measurement in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) applications for manufacturing environments is presented in this article , where authors present an overview of factors, metrics, and measures used in the robotics community to evaluate performance and human well-being quality aspects in HRI applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Restock and straightening system for retail automation using compliant and mobile manipulation
Gustavo Alfonso Garcia Ricardez,S. Okada,Nishanth Koganti,Akiya Yasuda,P. M. Uriguen Eljuri,Tetsuya Sano,Pin-Chu Yang,L. El Hafi,Masaki Yamamoto,Jun Takamatsu,Tsukasa Ogasawara +10 more
TL;DR: The proposed mobile manipulator features a custom-made end effector with compact and compliant design to safely and effectively manipulate products in retail stores to restock shelves, dispose expired products, and straighten products in Retail environments.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Alignment of Occupancy Grid and Floor Maps Using Graph Matching
Daisuke Kakuma,Satoki Tsuichihara,Gustavo Alfonso Garcia Ricardez,Jun Takamatsu,Tsukasa Ogasawara +4 more
TL;DR: This paper proposes a method using graph matching to align a floor map with an occupancy grid map generated by SLAM, and verified that this method can perform a gross alignment of the maps in an actual situation.
