Within the field of human rehabilitation, robotic machines are used both to rehabilitate the
body and to perform functional tasks. Robotics autonomy that would enable perception of …

This document presents an assisted operation system of a robotic arm for positioning near
an explosive device selected by the user through the visualization of the cameras on the …

Wheelchair-mounted robotic arms have been commercially available for a decade. In order
to operate these robotic arms, a user must have a high level of cognitive function. Our …

In this paper, a Brain–Computer Interface (BCI) control approach for the assistive robotic
system FRIEND is presented. The objective of the robot is to assist elderly and persons with …

Accessibility is a challenge for people with disabilities. Differences in cognitive ability,
sensory impairments, motor dexterity, behavioral skills, and social skills must be taken into …

People with physical disabilities have ranked object retrieval as a high-priority task for
assistive robots. We have developed Dusty, a teleoperated mobile manipulator that fetches …

We document the progress in the design and implementation of a motion control strategy
that exploits visual feedback from a narrow baseline stereo head mounted in the hand of a …

We present a new behavior selection system for human-robot interaction that maps virtual
buttons overlaid on the physical environment to the robotpsilas behaviors, thereby creating a …

This paper reports on the system design for integrating the various processes needed for
end-to-end implementation of a smart assistive robotic manipulator. Specifically, progress is …

In this paper, we document the progress in the design of a motion segmentation and control
strategy for a smart assistive robot arm that can provide assistance during activities of daily …
