While conventional bilateral Single-Master/Single-Slave (SM/SS) teleoperation systems
have received considerable attention during the past several decades, multilateral …

This paper examines how haptic technology, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence help to
reduce the physical contact in medical training during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Notably, any …

Audiovisual communications is at the core of multimedia systems that allow users to interact
across distances. It is common understanding that both audio and video are required for …

This paper presents a robust gain-scheduling controller design based on the parameter-
space approach. The gain-scheduling control is of interest for systems with varying …

In this article, we describe the development of a human-robot interaction concept for service
robots to assist elderly people in the home with physical tasks. Our approach is based on the …

When interacting with virtual objects through haptic devices, most of the time only one hand
is involved. However, the increase of computational power, along with the decrease of …

In this paper, bilateral teleoperation of multiple slaves coupled to a single master under
scheduling communication is investigated. The sampled-data transmission between the …

Teleoperation control of kinematically redundant robots requires a strategy for resolving their
redundancy. A trilateral two-master/one-slave control approach is proposed for delay-free …

This paper presents a remotely operated robotic system that includes two mobile
manipulators to extend the functional capabilities of a human body. Compared with previous …

While humans can manipulate deformable objects smoothly and naturally, this is still a
challenge for autonomous robots due to the complex object dynamics. The presence of rigid …
