This paper introduces an object recognition strategy based on the following premises: i) an object can be identified on the basis of the optical flow it induces on a stationary ob...
— This paper introduces a new method to determine a person’s pose based on laser range measurements. Such estimates are typically a prerequisite for any human-aware robot navig...
Abstract— In the framework of physical Human-Robot Interaction (pHRI), methodologies and experimental tests are presented for the problem of detecting and reacting to collisions ...
Fully autonomous aerial robots are needed to accomplish near-Earth missions such as search and rescue, and bio-chemical sensing. Recent advances in sensor technologies ([6], [8], ...
In this paper we describe MRSCL Geometry a collaborative educational activity that explores the use of robotic technology and wirelessly connected Pocket PCs as tools for teaching ...
