During robot-aided surgical interventions, the surgeon can be benefitted from the application
of virtual fixtures (VFs). Though very effective, this technique is very often not practicable in …

Shared control, which permits a human operator and an autonomous controller to share the
control of a telerobotic system, can reduce the operator's workload and/or improve …

We propose novel haptic guidance methods for a dual-arm telerobotic manipulation system,
which are able to deal with several different constraints, such as collisions, joint limits, and …

Teleoperation offers the possibility to combine human intelligence with robot power and
endurance, making it a perfect solution for hostile-for-human environments. Nonetheless …

A virtual fixture (VF) is a constraint built into software that assists a human operator in
moving a remote tool along a preferred path via an augmented guidance force to improve …

Robot teleoperation is widely used for several hazardous applications. To increase
teleoperator capabilities shared-control methods can be employed. In this paper, we present …

In industrial or surgical settings, to achieve many tasks successfully, at least two people are
needed. To this end, robotic assistance could be used to enable a single person to perform …

Transporting large and heavy objects can benefit from Human–Robot Collaboration (HRC),
increasing the contribution of robots to our daily tasks and addressing challenges arising …

To perform the complex tasks with telerobot system in cluttered environments such as
disaster, underwater, space, the necessity of shared teleoperation is increased. However …

Virtual fixtures (VFs) improve human operator performance in teleoperation scenarios.
However, the generation of VFs is challenging, especially in unstructured environments. In …
