Numerous risk factors for musculoskeletal pain have been identified in the survey, including
physical risk factors such as high-intensity exercises, trauma, ageing, dizziness, accidents …

We conducted a literature review on sensor heads for humanoid robots. A strong case is
made on topics involved in human robot interaction. Having found that vision is the most …

The development of robotic cognition and the advancement of understanding of human
cognition form two of the current greatest challenges in robotics and neuroscience …

A robot's head is important both for directional sensors and, in human-directed robotics, as
the single most visible interaction interface. However, designing a robot's head faces …

This work presents a multimodal bottom-up attention system for the humanoid robot iCub
where the robot's decisions to move eyes and neck are based on visual and acoustic …

Improving the interaction between artificial systems and their users is an important issue in
artificial intelligence. In current trends in social robotics, this is accomplished by making such …

This paper describes a multi-disciplinary initiative to promote collaborative research in
enactive artificial cognitive systems by developing the iCub: a open-systems 53 degree-of …

Being able to locate the origin of a sound is important for our capability to interact with the
environment. Humans can locate a sound source in both the horizontal and vertical plane …

The incessant progress of robotic technology and rationalization of human manpower
induces high expectations in society, but also resentment and even fear. In this paper, we …

The design and construction of truly humanoid robots that can perceive and interact with the
environment depends significantly on their perception capabilities. In this paper we present …
