The use of MR actuators in collaborative robotics serial manipulators is only emerging and the design space of this approach is unknown. This paper provides a preliminary understanding of this design space by studying how much gearing can be used between the MR actuators and the joint outputs while maintaining adequate safety levels for collaborative tasks. An analytical collision model is derived for a 6 degrees-of-freedom serial manipulator based on the geometry of the well-known UR5e robot. Model validity is confirmed by comparing predictions to experimental collision data from two robots, a UR5e and a MR5 equivalent. The model is then used to study the impact of gearing level on safety during eventual collisions with human. Results show that for both technologies, robot safety is governed by the balance between the reflected mass due to structural mass and actuator rotational inertia. Results show that, for the UR5e geometry studied in this paper, MR actuators have the potential to reduce the reflected mass in collisions by a factor ranging from 2 to 6 while keeping gearing ratios above 100:1. The paper also briefly studies the influence of robot shape on optimal gearing ratios showing that smaller robots with shorter range have lower structural mass and, thus, proportionally benefit even more of MR actuators. Delocalizing wrist actuators to the elbow has a similar impact since it also reduces structural mass. In all, this work suggests that MR actuators have a strong potential to improve the \"hapticness\" of collaborative robots while maintaining high gearing ratios.</p>","PeriodicalId":47597,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Robotics and AI","volume":"12 ","pages":"1581651"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12176604/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144334151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although prior experience with robots weakly correlated with rapport, it did not significantly predict adoption willingness. Overall, the findings highlight the potential for LLM-powered robots to maintain open-domain interactions over time, but also underscore the need for improving technical robustness, adapting conversation strategies by personalization, and managing user expectations to foster long-term social engagement.

The adaptability of organisms is defined by their ability to select appropriate behaviors based on sensory inputs in response to environmental changes, a capacity that insects exhibit through efficient adaptive behaviors despite their limited nervous systems. Consequently, new measurement techniques are needed to investigate the neuroethological processes in insects. Traditional behavioral observations of insects have been conducted using free-walking experiments and treadmill techniques; however, these methods face limitations in accurately measuring sensory stimuli and analyzing the factors contributing to detailed behavioral changes. In this study, a robotic system is employed to track free-walking insects while simultaneously recording electroantennogram (EAG) responses at the location of the antenna of the insect during movement, thus enabling the measurement of the relationship between olfactory reception and behavioral change.

The system comprises a high-speed camera to estimate the movement direction of the insect, a drive system, and instrumentation amplifiers to measure physiological responses. The robot tracks the insect with an error margin of less than 5 mm, recording the EAG responses associated with the olfactory reception during this process. An analysis of the relationship between EAG responses and behavior revealed that the silk moth exhibits a significant amplitude in its EAG responses during the initial odor source localization stage. This suggests that the moth does not necessarily move toward the strongest odor. Further information-theoretic analysis revealed that the moth might be moving in the direction most likely to lead to odor detection, depending on the timing of its olfactory reception. This approach allows for a more natural measurement of the connection between olfactory sensory stimuli and behavior during odor source localization. The study findings are expected to deepen our understanding of the adaptive behaviors of insects.</p>","PeriodicalId":47597,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Robotics and AI","volume":"12 ","pages":"1602867"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12171283/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144318373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
