The degree of successful human-robot collaboration is dependent on the joint consideration
of robot factors (RF) and human factors (HF). Depending on the state of the operator, a …

As the global population rapidly ages with longer life expectancy and declining birth rates,
the need for healthcare services and caregivers for older adults is increasing. Current …

Experienced middle school mathematics and science teachers were recruited for a pilot
study. The teachers separately responded to a survey related to determining expected …

This paper introduces a novel method of inclusion of human cognition in the form of weight
perception in the dynamics and control of a power assist robotic system (PARS) for object …

A 1-DOF power assist robotic system is developed for grasping and lifting objects tied with it
by human operator. The dynamics of object manipulation with the system is derived, and a …

A human-robot collaborative system in the form of a power and skill assist robotic system
was developed where a human and a robot could collaborate to perform object …

In the first step, a 1-DOF power assist robotic system (PARS) was developed for object
manipulation with it, and the dynamics for human-robot co-manipulation of objects was …

Two humanoid robots are developed. Both robots are human-like in appearance though one
is more human-like than the other. A virtual human with human-like appearance is also …

The objective is to create and program a demonstration of a manipulator arm that is capable
of detecting objects, distinguishing between them, and relocating target objects to …

Affect-based intelligent motion control for human-robot collaborative assembly in
manufacturing was developed, and the effects of the dynamic affect-based control on human …
