Beat gestures are a key category of gestures, accompanying emphasis and timing of talk. The standard approach for autonomously adding gestures to speech for artificial agents to perform, is to identify when gestures should occur, and then select appropriate movements from a prewritten library. However, selecting naively from a library is unlikely to result in particularly human-like gesture sequences. In order to obtain examples of engaging human beat gestures, we studied videos of chat show hosts. Our analysis reveals rules for the creation of human-like beat gestures. We have combined these rules with hand scripted non-beat gestures, to produce a monologue with a complete set of accompanying gestures; it is designed for performance by our humanoid robot BERTI. In order to test the gestures produced we carried out a pilot study at the London Science Museum. The results of the study indicate that having correctly designed gesture sequences improves observer engagement.","PeriodicalId":187657,"journal":{"name":"RO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129045693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To enable a more natural communication, based on speech and gesture, robots must be endowed with auditive and visual perception capacities. This paper describes a modular multimodal interface based on speech and gestures in order to control an interactive robot called Jido. In this paper we describe how the speech recognition and understanding module processes deictic and anaphoric utterances in a robust way and how gesture is taken into account at the fusion level to complement speech utterances. These two other modules, namely gesture interpretation and probabilistic multimodal fusion are then briefly depicted. Their integration and the associated robotics experiments are finally reported. These experiments were carried out in the context of a multimodal interactive manipulation task involving successive local motion and handling commands. Our object exchange scenario was successfully run several times with different users.","PeriodicalId":187657,"journal":{"name":"RO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116510901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The work described in this paper is part of the IROMEC project (Interactive Robotic Social Mediators as Companions) that recognizes the important role of play in child development and targets children who are prevented from or inhibited in playing. The project investigates the role of an interactive, autonomous robotic toy in therapy and education for children with special needs. This paper specifically addresses the therapeutic and educational objectives related to children with autism. In recent years, robots have already been used to teach basic social interaction skills to children with autism. The added value of the IROMEC robot is that play scenarios have been developed taking children's specific strengths and needs into consideration and covering a wide range of objectives in children's development areas (sensory, communicational and interaction, motor, cognitive and social and emotional). The paper describes children's developmental areas and illustrates how different experiences and interactions with the IROMEC robot are designed to target objectives in these areas.","PeriodicalId":187657,"journal":{"name":"RO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125492676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gait pattern generation for a power-assist device of paraplegic gait 一种截瘫步态动力辅助装置的步态模式生成

In the gait movement with WPAL, a backward falling is a considerable problem, and a foot-floor collision during a swing movement would induce a loss of balance. In addition, adjustability of the gait parameters, such as stride length, gait cycle and maximum hight of the toe clearance, would be required for an individual paraplegic according to the degrees of his disabilities and skills. In this paper, we propose a gait pattern generation method considering the requirements of the stability and the adjustability. First, the trajectories of toe position, horizontal hip position, and foot plantar angle are calculated using a minimum jerk trajectory with the constraints of the position and velocity at via points. Second, the desired trajectories of joint angles are determined from the calculated trajectories by inverse kinematic equations. We demonstrate that generated desired trajectories for various gait parameter values and boundary conditions were satisfied with the required stability conditions.","PeriodicalId":187657,"journal":{"name":"RO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121849142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Control of a power assist robot for lifting objects based on human operator's perception of object weight","authors":"S. Rahman, R. Ikeura, M. Nobe, H.

But, the human operator cannot differentiate between the power assisted weight and the actual weight and eventually applies load force (vertical lifting force) according to the actual weight of the object. This faulty force programming (excessive load force) gives faulty motions to the power assist robot and jeopardizes its operability, maneuverability, ease of use, naturalness, human-friendliness, safety etc. In this paper we assume that these problems still exist with the power assist robots because human's weight perception is not included in the design and control of the conventional power assist robots .We hypothesize that human's perception of weight due to inertial force may be different from the perceived weight due to gravitational force for lifting object with a power assist robot. Based on this hypothesis, we designed a 1 DOF power assist robot and established a psychophysical relationship between the actual weights and the power assisted weights for the objects lifted with the robot. We also determined the excess of the load forces that humans applied. Then, we modified the control system of the power assist robot based on the psychophysical relationship and the load force characteristics. The modification of the control system reduced the peak load forces applied by humans and thus enhanced maneuverability, naturalness, ease of use, stability, safety etc. of the robot system significantly. Finally, we proposed using the findings to design human-friendly power assist robots for carrying heavy objects in various industries.","PeriodicalId":187657,"journal":{"name":"RO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134354997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Homotopy-based controller for physical human-robot interaction 基于同伦的人机物理交互控制器

This model is based on a homotopy between two controllers and defines the behavior of each partner as the result of a time-varying balance between two roles: the leader role, which consists in acting according to a plan without considering the other partner's intentions; and the follower role, which conversely consists in acting only based on the intentions of the other partner. The continuous switch between these two attitudes is described by two variables whose time-profile can define a task signature. After a brief presentation of the model, two illustrative scenarios are detailed to give more insights on how the homotopy parameter can be used to describe different situations that can occur in collaborative tasks between two partners. We especially focus on how some recent results in the human-human interaction can be encompassed by our proposed model. Experiments are performed to assess the usability of the model as a control scheme to implement advanced collaborative behaviors on a robotic platform.","PeriodicalId":187657,"journal":{"name":"RO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131696715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
