In this paper we present Robox, a mobile robot designed for operation in a mass exhibition
and the experience we made with its installation at the Swiss National Exhibition Expo. 02 …

This paper presents a navigation framework which enables multiple mobile robots to attain
individual goals, coordinate their actions and work safely and reliably in a highly dynamic …

This paper considers design methodologies in order to develop voice-enabled interfaces for
tour-guide robots deployed at the Robotics Exposition of the Swiss National Exhibition …

In this paper, we introduce probabilistic model based architecture for error handling in
human–robot spoken dialogue systems under adverse audio conditions. In this architecture …

This paper presents the genesis of the Expo. 02 robot. RoboX the tour guide robot has been
built from the scratch for this project based on the experience of the Autonomous Systems …

Social robotics is currently challenging researchers to look at virtually every topic with
relevance for human societies. The multidisciplinary nature of this new area is emerging at a …

In this paper, we propose a method based on Bayesian networks for interpretation of
multimodal signals used in the spoken dialogue between a tour-guide robot and visitors in …

The main task of a voice-enabled tour-guide robot in mass exhibition setting is to engage
visitors in dialogue and provide as much exhibit information as possible in a limited time. In …

In this paper we present a new method to detect motion from mobile platforms using laser
range data. Motion can be found as differences in successive scans. The main challenge in …

In this paper, we propose a Bayesian network framework for managing interactivity between
a tour-guide robot and visitors in mass exhibition conditions, through robust interpretation of …
