The Classification and New Trends of Shared Control Strategies in Telerobotic Systems: A Survey.

IEEE transactions on haptics
Shared control, which permits a human operator and an autonomous controller to share the control of a telerobotic system, can reduce the operator's workload and/or improve performances during the execution of tasks. Due to the great benefits of combi...

Resolution enhancement of tongue tactile image based on deconvolution neural network.

Journal of texture studies
To reproduce the tactile perception of multiple contacts on the human tongue surface, it is necessary to use a pressure measurement device with high spatial resolution. However, reducing the size of the array sensing unit and optimizing the lead arra...

A hierarchical sensorimotor control framework for human-in-the-loop robotic hands.

Science robotics
Human manual dexterity relies critically on touch. Robotic and prosthetic hands are much less dexterous and make little use of the many tactile sensors available. We propose a framework modeled on the hierarchical sensorimotor controllers of the nerv...

Behavioural Models of Risk-Taking in Human-Robot Tactile Interactions.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Touch can have a strong effect on interactions between people, and as such, it is expected to be important to the interactions people have with robots. In an earlier work, we showed that the intensity of tactile interaction with a robot can change ho...

Spatial Calibration of Humanoid Robot Flexible Tactile Skin for Human-Robot Interaction.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Recent developments in robotics have enabled humanoid robots to be used in tasks where they have to physically interact with humans, including robot-supported caregiving. This interaction-referred to as physical human-robot interaction (pHRI)-require...

Integrated intelligent tactile system for a humanoid robot.

Science bulletin
Tactile perception is the basis of human motion. Achieving artificial tactility is one of the challenges in the fields of smart robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), because touch emulation relies on high-performance pressure sensor arrays, sign...

Towards Living Machines: current and future trends of tactile sensing, grasping, and social robotics.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The development of future technologies can be highly influenced by our deeper understanding of the principles that underlie living organisms. The Living Machines conference aims at presenting (among others) the interdisciplinary work of behaving syst...

Pleasant Stroke Touch on Human Back by a Human and a Robot.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Pleasant touching is an important aspect of social interactions that is widely used as a caregiving technique. To address the problems resulting from a lack of available human caregivers, previous research has attempted to develop robots that can per...

Photo-responsive liquid crystal network-based material with adaptive modulus for haptic application.

Scientific reports
Artificially created tactile feedback is in high demand due to fast developments in robotics, remote control in medicine, virtual reality, and smart electronics. Despite significant progress, high-quality haptic feedback devices remain challenging ma...

Design and Experimental Research of Robot Finger Sliding Tactile Sensor Based on FBG.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Aiming at the problem of flexible sliding tactile sensing for the actual grasp of intelligent robot fingers, a double-layer sliding tactile sensor based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) for robot fingers is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the optimal em...
