This article surveys the literature on human–robot object handovers. A handover is a
collaborative joint action, where an agent, the giver, gives an object to another agent, the …

Researchers in human–robot collaboration have extensively studied methods for inferring
human intentions and predicting their actions, as this is an important precursor for robots to …

Industry 5.0 constitutes a change of paradigm where the increase of economic benefits
caused by a never-ending increment of production is no longer the only priority. Instead …

Recent work in visual representation learning for robotics demonstrates the viability of
learning from large video datasets of humans performing everyday tasks. Leveraging …

Collaborative fluency is the coordinated meshing of joint activities between members of a
well-synchronized team. In recent years, researchers in human-robot collaboration have …

Ensuring human safety is one of the most important considerations within the field of human-
robot interaction (HRI). This does not simply involve preventing collisions between humans …

Objective: The objective of this work was to examine human response to motion-level robot
adaptation to determine its effect on team fluency, human satisfaction, and perceived safety …

This chapter surveys some of the principal research trends in Social Robotics and its
application to human–robot interaction (HRI). Social (or Sociable) robots are designed to …

A handover is a complex collaboration, where actors coordinate in time and space to
transfer control of an object. This coordination comprises two processes: the physical …

Advanced human–robot interaction becomes an essential resource in Industry 4.0.
Specifically, the deployment of collaborative robots (cobots) has changed the game in …
