Robot-assisted feeding can greatly enhance the lives of those with mobility limitations.
Modern feeding systems can pick up and position food in front of a care recipient's mouth for …

Robot-assisted feeding has the potential to improve the quality of life for individuals with
mobility limitations who are unable to feed themselves independently. However, there exists …

The paper presents REPeat, a Real2Sim2Real framework designed to enhance bite
acquisition in robot-assisted feeding for soft foods. It uses 'pre-acquisition actions' such as …

We demonstrate a robot-assisted feeding system that enables people with mobility
impairments to feed themselves. Our system design embodies Safety, Portability, and User …

Assistive robot arms have the potential to help disabled or elderly adults eat everyday meals
without relying on a caregiver. To provide meaningful assistance, these robots must reach …

For millions of adults with mobility limitations, eating meals is a daily challenge. A variety of
robotic systems have been developed to address this societal need. Unfortunately, end-user …

Grasp planning and estimation have been a longstanding research problem in robotics, with
two main approaches to find graspable poses on the objects: 1) geometric approach, which …

Despite decades of research on personal physically assistive robots for people with motor
impairments, deployments of such robots are still few. Part of the reason is that every user's …

Assistive robots can empower those with mobility impairments, engendering feelings of
independence. However, to reach the point of actual in-home use, they must manage the …
