Mobile devices' user interfaces are still quite similar to traditional interfaces offered by desktop computers, but those can be highly problematic when used in a mobile context. Human gesture recognition in mobile interaction appears as an…
An avatar mirroring the user's movement is commonly adopted in Virtual Reality(VR). Maintaining the user-avatar movement consistency provides the user a sense of body ownership and thus an immersive experience. However, breaking this…
As robots increasingly enter human-centered environments, they must not only be able to navigate safely around humans, but also adhere to complex social norms. Humans often rely on non-verbal communication through gestures and facial…
During in-hand manipulation, robots must be able to continuously estimate the pose of the object in order to generate appropriate control actions. The performance of algorithms for pose estimation hinges on the robot's sensors being able to…
Considerable effort has been devoted to the automatic extraction of information about action of the face from image sequences. Within the context of human-computer interaction (HCI) we may distinguish systems that allow expression from…
Touch,face,voice recognition and movement sensors all are part of an emerging field of computing often called natural user interface, or NUI. Interacting with technology in these humanistic ways is no longer limited to high tech secret…
The problem of Airwriting Recognition is focused on identifying letters written by movement of finger in free space. It is a type of gesture recognition where the dictionary corresponds to letters in a specific language. In particular,…
Sensors on mobile devices---accelerometers, gyroscopes, pressure meters, and GPS---invite new applications in gesture recognition, gaming, and fitness tracking. However, programming them remains challenging because human gestures captured…
This position paper looks briefly at the way we attempt to program robotic AI systems. Many AI systems are based on the idea of trying to improve the performance of one individual system to beyond so-called human baselines. However, these…
The millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar has been exploited for gesture recognition. However, existing mmWave-based gesture recognition methods cannot identify different users, which is important for ubiquitous gesture interaction in many…
The uncertainty and variability of underwater environment propose the request to control underwater robots in real time and dynamically, especially in the scenarios where human and robots need to work collaboratively in the field. However,…
Implicit communication plays such a crucial role during social exchanges that it must be considered for a good experience in human-robot interaction. This work addresses implicit communication associated with the detection of physical…
Despite great advances in what robots can do, they still experience failures in human-robot collaborative tasks due to high randomness in unstructured human environments. Moreover, a human's unfamiliarity with a robot and its abilities can…
In recent years, quadruped robots have attracted significant attention due to their practical advantages in maneuverability, particularly when navigating rough terrain and climbing stairs. As these robots become more integrated into various…
Robots are used by humans not only as tools but also to interactively assist and cooperate with humans, thereby forming physical human-robot interactions. In these interactions, there is a risk that a feedback loop causes unstable force…
Recent human computer-interaction (HCI) studies using electromyography (EMG) and inertial measurement units (IMUs) for upper-limb gesture recognition have claimed that inertial measurements alone result in higher classification accuracy…
Handovers are basic yet sophisticated motor tasks performed seamlessly by humans. They are among the most common activities in our daily lives and social environments. This makes mastering the art of handovers critical for a social and…
Human-robot collaboration (HRC) relies on accurate and timely recognition of human intentions to ensure seamless interactions. Among common HRC tasks, human-to-robot object handovers have been studied extensively for planning the robot's…
Sensing gloves have become important tools for teleoperation and robotic policy learning as they are able to provide rich signals like speed, acceleration and tactile feedback. A common approach to track gloved hands is to directly use the…
The current software development tools show the same form of interaction as when they started back, in the mid 70's. However, since the appearance of visual languages and due to their own nature, they can be handled by tools which have…
