When the human fingertip is pressed against a surface or bent, the hemodynamic state of the fingertip is altered due to mechanical interactions between the fingernail and bone. No...
Mutually-Immersive Mobile Telepresence uses a teleoperated robotic surrogate to visit remote locations as a substitute for physical travel. Our goal is to recreate to the greatest...
We present the results of using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for automatic segmentation and recognition of user motions. Previous work on recognition of user intent with man/machin...
