— As part of a program to find methods of reducing spatial interference in multi-robot systems, we propose the Interaction Grid (IG), a generalization of the Occupancy Grid that...
Service robots will have to accomplish more and more complex, open-ended tasks and regularly acquire new skills. In this work, we propose a new approach to generating plans for su...
Abstract— Direct physical human-robot interaction has become a central part in the research field of robotics today. To use the advantages of the potential for humans and robots...
