This paper presents a novel 3DOF pedestrian trajectory prediction approach for autonomous
mobile service robots. While most previously reported methods are based on learning of 2D …

Social robots are becoming increasingly diverse in their design, behavior, and usage. In this
chapter, we provide a broad-ranging overview of the main characteristics that arise when …

In an ageing society, the at-home use of Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) could provide
remote monitoring of their users' well-being, together with physical and psychological …

The long-term deployment of autonomous robots co-located with humans in real-world
scenarios remains a challenging problem. In this paper, we present the “Lindsey” tour guide …

Autonomous mobile robots deployed in outdoor environments must reason about different
types of terrain for both safety (eg, prefer dirt over mud) and deployer preferences (eg, prefer …
