The lower-limb assist exoskeleton plays the role of torque assiting and compliant tracking for
wearers to perform tasks. Accurate torque generation, backdrivability performance, low …

The attention given to impedance control in recent years does not match a similar focus on
the choice of impedance values that the controller should execute. Current methods are …

Autonomy is increasingly demanded to industrial manipulators. Robots have to be capable
to regulate their behavior to different operational conditions, adapting to the specific task to …

Domestic garbage management is an important aspect of a sustainable environment. This
paper presents a novel garbage classification and localization system for grasping and …

In this paper, we present an implementation of a bi-manual teleoperation system, controlled
by a human through three-dimensional (3D) skeleton extraction. The input data is given from …

Collaborative robots that can directly interact with humans have become a new trend in the
robotics field. To achieve safe and friendly human-robot interaction, the compliant control of …

This paper presents an adaptive haptic shared control framework wherein a driver and an
automation system are physically connected through a motorized steering wheel. An …

Real world applications require robots to operate in unstructured environments. This kind of
scenarios may lead to unexpected environmental contacts or undesired interactions, which …

Expanding robot autonomy can deliver functional flexibility and enable fast deployment of
robots in challenging and unstructured environments. In this direction, significant advances …

In this paper, we introduce an adaptive robotic manipulation framework to respond to the
flexibility needs of common industrial tasks such as box-filling and item sorting. The …
