In addition to using a videoconferencing system with camera images, avatars can also be used for remote classes. In particular, an android avatar with a sense of presence has the potential to provide higher quality education than a video-recorded lecture. To investigate the specific educational effects of android avatars, we used a Geminoid. an android with the appearance of a specific individual, and conducted both laboratory experiment and large-scale field experiment. The first compared the android avatar lecture with a videoconferencing system. We found that the use of an android avatar for the lecture led to the significantly higher subjective feelings of being seen, feeling more motivated, and focused on the lecture compared to the video lecture. We further conducted a large-scale field experiment with an android avatar to clarify what contributes to such educational effects. The results suggest that the students' perception of android's anthroppomorphism and competence has a positive impact, and discomfort has a negative impact on the subjective experence of educational effect. These results indicate the role of embodied anthropomorphization in positive educational experience. The important point of this study is that both the laboratory experiment and the large-scale experiment were conducted to clarify the educational effects of androids. These results support several related studies and are clarified in detail. Based on these results, the potential for the future usage of androids in education is discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":47597,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Robotics and AI","volume":"11 ","pages":"1469626"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11743274/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143013904","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}

Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves stable high-speed locomotion with robustness against external disturbances and maneuverability that allows directional changes with only slight speed reduction. These findings suggest that utilizing centrifugal force plays a critical role in agile locomotion, aligning with the movement strategies of cursorial animals.

Nevertheless, soft sensors are fragile and are susceptible to various damage sources in such environments. Some researchers have utilized redundant configuration, where healthy sensors compensate instantaneously for lost ones to maintain proprioception accuracy. However, achieving consistently reliable proprioception under diverse sensor degradation remains a challenge. This paper proposes a novel framework for graceful degradation in redundant soft sensor systems, incorporating a stochastic Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and a Time-Delay Feedforward Neural Network (TDFNN). The LSTM estimates readings from healthy sensors to compare them with actual data. Then, statistically abnormal readings are zeroed out. The TDFNN receives the processed sensor readings to perform proprioception. Simulation experiments with a musculoskeletal leg that contains 40 nonlinear soft sensors demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Results show that the knee angle proprioception accuracy is retained across four distinct degradation scenarios.

This limits our ability to make predictions, including our ability to detect program bugs statically. Since running a robot is an expensive task, finding errors at runtime can prolong the debugging loop or even cause safety hazards. This paper proposes an approach to help developers catch these errors as soon as we have some context (typically at pre-launch time) with minimal additional efforts. We use embedded domain-specific language (DSL) techniques to enforce early checks. We describe design patterns suitable for robot programming and show how to use these design patterns for DSL embedding in Python, using two case studies on an open-source robot skill platform SkiROS2, designed for the composition of robot skills. These two case studies help us understand how to use DSL embedding on two abstraction levels: the high-level skill description that focuses on what the robot can do and under what circumstances and the lower-level decision-making and execution flow of tasks. Using our DSL EzSkiROS, we show how our design patterns enable robotics software platforms to detect bugs in the high-level contracts between the robot's capabilities and the robot's understanding of the world. We also apply the same techniques to detect bugs in the lower-level implementation code, such as writing behavior trees (BTs), to control the robot's behavior based on its capabilities. We perform consistency checks during the code deployment phase, significantly earlier than the typical runtime checks. This enhances the overall safety by identifying potential issues with the skill execution before they can impact robot behavior. An initial study with SkiROS2 developers shows that our DSL-based approach is useful for finding bugs early and thus improving the maintainability of the code.</p>","PeriodicalId":47597,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Robotics and AI","volume":"11 ","pages":"1363443"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11738934/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143013928","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}

Consequently, the proposed unified robotic motion planning framework seamlessly combines global trajectory planning with local reactive control and ensures comprehensive obstacle avoidance for the entire body of a robotic manipulator.
