2. 1. Robot Sound in Interaction : Analyzing and Designing Sound for Human-Robot Coordination

   Author : Hannah Pelikan; Leelo Keevallik; Mathias Broth; Christian Licoppe; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Conversation analysis; Ethnomethodology; Human-robot interaction; Interaction design; Multimodality; Non-lexical sounds; Robot sound; Video analysis; Etnometodologi; Icke-lexikala ljud; Interaktionsanalys; Interaktionsdesign; Multimodalitet; Människa-robotinteraktion; Robotljud; Videoanalys;

   Abstract : Robots naturally emit sound, but we still know little about how sound can serve as an interface that makes a robot’s behavior explainable to humans. This dissertation draws on insights about human practices for coordinating bodily activities through sound, investigating how they could inform robot design. READ MORE

4. 2. Human-Robot Interaction and Mapping with a Service Robot : Human Augmented Mapping

   Author : Elin Anna Topp; Henrik I. Christensen; Benjamin J. Kuipers; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Robotics; Human-Robot Interaction; Cognitive modelling; Representation of space; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : An issue widely discussed in robotics research is the ageing society with its consequences for care-giving institutions and opportunities for developments in the area of service robots and robot companions. The general idea of using robotic systems in a personal or private context to support an independent way of living not only for the elderly but also for the physically impaired is pursued in different ways, ranging from socially oriented robotic pets to mobile assistants.

5. 3. Designing and Evaluating Human-Robot Communication : Informing Design through Analysis of User Interaction

   Author : Anders Green; Kerstin Severinson Eklundh; Henrik Christensen; Candice Sidner; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human-Robot Interaction; Human-Robot Communication; Natural language user interfaces; Interaction Design; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : This thesis explores the design and evaluation of human-robot communication for service robots that use natural language to interact with people.  The research is centred around three themes: design of human-robot communication; evaluation of miscommunication in human-robot communication; and the analysis of spatial influence as empiric phenomenon and design element.

7. 5. From Human to Robot Grasping

   Author : Javier Romero; Danica Kragic; Jana Kosecka; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; computer vision; hand tracking; hand pose estimation; human-to-robot mapping; robotics; grasping; modeling; human action modeling; dimensionality reduction; taxonomy; corrective movements; visual servoing;

   Abstract : Imagine that a robot fetched this thesis for you from a book shelf. How doyou think the robot would have been programmed? One possibility is thatexperienced engineers had written low level descriptions of all imaginabletasks, including grasping a small book from this particular shelf. READ MORE
