This paper presents a new approach to shared control. It consists of combining orders from a
mobile and a human. The weight of these orders is obtained by evaluating their …

Autonomous robots are capable of navigating on their own. Shared control approaches,
however, allow humans to make some navigation decisions. This is typically executed either …

Autonomous robots are capable of navigating on their own. In some cases, though, it is
interesting to allow humans to influence navigation. Shared control is typically achieved …

This paper presents a study on human performance when people are assisted by a purely
reactive navigation control system. The goal of such a system is to achieve collaborative …

Shared control is a strategy used in assistive platforms to combine human and robot orders
to achieve a goal. Collaborative control is a specific shared control approach, in which user's …

Research in robot navigation usually concentrates on implementing navigation algorithms
that allow the robot to navigate without human aid. In many real world situations, it is …

In this paper we propose a method to modulate the level of assistance provided by a shared
controller, not only given the environmental context, but also according to the context of the …

In this paper an adaptive shared control frame-work for human agent collaboration is
introduced. In this framework the agent predicts the human intention with a confidence factor …

Reliability and availability are major concerns for autonomous systems. A personal robot
has to solve complex tasks, such as loading a dishwasher or folding laundry, which are very …

A team consisting of a master robot and a slave robot is used to perform cooperative
navigation tasks. The master tracks a beacon carried by the slave and manages the …
