Robots are increasingly used in shared environments with humans, making effective
communication a necessity for successful human-robot interaction. In our work, we study a …

A complete prototype for multi-modal interaction between humans and multi-robot systems is
described. The application focus is on search and rescue missions. From the human-side …

The human sciences have demonstrated that gesture is a critical element of human
communication. While existing graphical solutions are appropriate for virtual agents, solving …

To engage in natural interactions with humans, social robots should produce speech-
accompanying non-verbal behaviors such as hand and arm gestures. Given the special …

When we begin to build and interact with machines or robots that either look like humans or
have human functionalities and capabilities, then people may well interact with their human …

For intuitive human-robot collaboration, the robot must quickly adapt to the human behavior.
To this end, we propose a multimodal sensor-based control framework, enabling a robot to …

Semio is developing a cloud-based platform to allow humans to use robots through natural
communication-speech and body language. The platform allows developers to create and …

The purpose of a robot is to execute tasks for people. People should be able to
communicate with robots in a natural way. People naturally express themselves through …

One of the crucial steps in the attempt to build sociable, communicative humanoid robots is
to endow them with expressive non-verbal behaviors along with speech. One such behavior …

The usage of robots becomes more sophisticated, direct communication by means of human
language is required to increase the efficiency of their performance. However, the dialogue …
