This paper presents the design, implementation, and experimental validation of a haptic
glove mechanism: the RML glove (Robotics and Mechatronics Lab). The designed haptic …

Understanding intent is an important aspect of communication among people and is an
essential component of the human cognitive system. This capability is particularly relevant …

This paper presents a new and challenging approach to the control of mobile platforms.
Natural user interfaces (NUIs) and visual computing techniques are used to control the …

We introduce a socially motivated interaction technique with collocated flying robots (a

This paper presents the design, implementation and experimental validation of a novel
robotic haptic exoskeleton device to measure the user's hand motion and assist hand motion …

Teamwork is best achieved when members of the team understand one another. Human–
robot collaboration poses a particular challenge to this goal due to the differences between …

This paper presents a new visual gesture recognition method for the human-machine
interface of mobile robot teleoperation. The interface uses seven static hand gestures, each …
