— Human-robot interaction (HRI) is now well enough understood to allow us to build useful systems that can function outside of the laboratory. We are studying longterm interactio...
We postulate that multi-wheel statically-stable mobile robots for operation in human environments are an evolutionarydead end. Robots of this class tall enough to interact meaning...
— Simulation is becoming an increasingly important aspect of mobile robots. As we are better able to simulate the real world, we can usefully perform more research in simulated e...
A new generation of mobile service robots could be ready soon to operate in human environments if they can robustly estimate position and identity of surrounding people. Researcher...
In this paper, we first discuss the meaning of physical embodiment and the complexity of the environment in the context of multi-agent learning. We then propose a vision-based rei...
