Metaverse is expected to emerge as a new paradigm for the next-generation Internet, providing fully immersive and personalised experiences to socialize, work, and play in self-sustaining and hyper-spatio-temporal virtual world(s). The…
We present the concept of X-Vision, an enhanced Augmented Reality (AR)-based visualization tool, with the real-time sensing capability in a tagged environment. We envision that this type of a tool will enhance the user-environment…
Social-physical human-robot interaction (spHRI) is difficult to study: building and programming robots that integrate multiple interaction modalities is costly and slow, while VR-based prototypes often lack physical contact, breaking users'…
Many of the tasks that a service robot can perform at home involve navigation skills. In a real world scenario, the navigation system should consider individuals beyond just objects, theses days it is necessary to offer particular and…
This short paper presents an architectural overview of an agent-based framework called iv4XR for automated testing that is currently under development by an H2020 project with the same name. The framework's intended main use case of is…
The metaverse is a nascent concept that envisions a virtual universe, a collaborative space where individuals can interact, create, and participate in a wide range of activities. Privacy in the metaverse is a critical concern as the concept…
The Metaverse is a network of eXtended Reality applications (XR apps) connected to each other, over the Internet infrastructure, allowing network users, systems, and devices to access them. It is very challenging to implement solutions for…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) covers a broad spectrum of computational problems and use cases. Many of those implicate profound and sometimes intricate questions of how humans interact or should interact with AIs. Moreover, many users or…
A common vision from science fiction is that robots will one day inhabit our physical spaces, sense the world as we do, assist our physical labours, and communicate with us through natural language. Here we study how to design artificial…
Metaverse applications desire to communicate with semantically identified objects among a diverse set of cyberspace entities, such as cameras for collecting images from, sensors for sensing environment, and users collaborating with each…
