Human motion prediction for human-robot collaboration
Hongyi Liu,Lihui Wang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a human-robot collaborative assembly system is proposed to predict human workers' intention and assist human during assembly operations, where a hidden Markov model is used to generate a motion transition probability matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal Subtask Allocation for Human and Robot Collaboration Within Hybrid Assembly System
TL;DR: A folk-joint task model is introduced that describes the sequential and parallel features and logic restriction of human and robot collaboration appropriately and a logic mathematic method is developed to preserve a cost-effectiveness level of task allocation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Capability-based Task Allocation in Human-robot Collaboration
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an approach to determine task allocation by considering the actual capabilities of both human and robot in order to improve work quality and to identify the maximum congruence as the basis for the allocation decision.
Proceedings Article
Safety of Industrial Robots: From Conventional to Collaborative Applications
Jeff Fryman,Bjoern Matthias +1 more
TL;DR: The developments of industrial robots and of the robot safety standards are surveyed, outlining the steps that have brought them to the present status, the opening of possibilities for human-robot collaboration in industrial production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Robots Working with Humans or Humans Working with Robots? Searching for Social Dimensions in New Human-Robot Interaction in Industry
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the use of new robotic systems in the manufacturing industry with respect to the social dimension and discuss the conceptualization of (old) organizational problems of human-robot interaction.

Robot Vision
TL;DR: Robot Vision as discussed by the authors is a broad overview of the field of computer vision, using a consistent notation based on a detailed understanding of the image formation process, which can provide a useful and current reference for professionals working in the fields of machine vision, image processing, and pattern recognition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stable haptic interaction with virtual environments
Richard Adams,Blake Hannaford +1 more
TL;DR: By decoupling the haptic display control problem from the design of virtual environments, the use of a virtual coupling network frees the developer of haptic-enabled virtual reality models from issues of mechanical stability.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Towards a 3g crawling robot through the integration of microrobot technologies
TL;DR: This paper discusses the biomimetic design and assembly of a 3g self-contained crawling robot fabricated through the integrated use of various microrobot technologies and presents results of both the kinematic and static analyses of the driving mechanism that essentially consists of three slider cranks in series.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast and "soft-arm" tactics [robot arm design]
Antonio Bicchi,G. Tonietti +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the problem of designing joint-actuation mechanisms that can allow fast and accurate operation of a robot arm, while guaranteeing a suitably limited level of injury risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Robust control of dynamically interacting systems
J.E. Colgate,Neville Hogan +1 more
TL;DR: This paper describes an approach to the design of ‘interaction controllers’ and contrasts this with an Approach to the Design of Approaches toDynamic interaction with the environment is fundamental to the process of manipulation.
