  2. 16. Communication-Aware Motion Planning for Mobile Robots

    Author : Magnus Minnema Lindhé; Karl Henrik Johansson; Francesco Bullo; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; autonomous systems; robotics; wireless sensor networks; motion planning; multipath fading;

    Abstract : Mobile robots have found numerous applications in recent years, in areas such as consumer robotics, environmental monitoring, security and transportation. For information dissemination, multi-robot cooperation or operator intervention, reliable communications are important. READ MORE

  4. 17. Computational models for intent recognition in robotic systems

    Author : Michele Persiani; Thomas Hellström; Sven Magg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Intent Recognition; Robotics; Plan Recognition; Speech; Affordances; Computer Science; datalogi;

    Abstract : The ability to infer and mediate intentions has been recognized as a crucial task in recent robotics research, where it is agreed that robots are required to be equipped with intentional mechanisms in order to participate in collaborative tasks with humans.Reasoning about - or rather, perceiving - intentions enables robots to infer what other agents are doing, to communicate what are their plans, or to take proactive decisions.

  5. 18. Child–Robot Interaction in Education

    Author : Sofia Serholt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; child–robot interaction; education; robotics; ethics; responsible research and innovation; stakeholders; ethics;

    Abstract : Advances in the field of robotics in recent years have enabled the deployment of robots in a multitude of settings, and it is predicted that this will continue to increase, leading to a profound impact on society in the future. This thesis takes its starting point in educational robots; specifically the kind of robots that are designed to interact socially with children. READ MORE

  6. 19. Exploiting structure in man-made environments

    Author : Alper Aydemir; Patric Jensfelt; Tom Duckett; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; robotics; mapping; computer vision;

    Abstract : Robots are envisioned to take on jobs that are dirty, dangerous and dull, the three D's of robotics. With this mission, robotic technology today is ubiquitous on the factory floor. However, the same level of success has not occurred when it comes to robots that operate in everyday living spaces, such as homes and offices. READ MORE

  7. 20. Multi-Modal Scene Understanding for Robotic Grasping

    Author : Jeannette Bohg; Danica Kragic; Michael Beetz; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Robotics; Grasping; Manipulation; Computer Vision; Machine Learning;

    Abstract : Current robotics research is largely driven by the vision of creatingan intelligent being that can perform dangerous, difficult orunpopular tasks. These can for example be exploring the surface of planet mars or the bottomof the ocean, maintaining a furnace or assembling a car. READ MORE
