We propose SlingDrone, a novel Mixed Reality interaction paradigm that utilizes a micro-quadrotor as both pointing controller and interactive robot with a slingshot motion type. The drone attempts to hover at a given position while the…

Recognizing human actions is a core challenge for autonomous systems as they directly share the same space with humans. Systems must be able to recognize and assess human actions in real-time. In order to train corresponding data-driven…

The Robot Operating System (ROS) provides a software framework, and ecosystem of knowledge and community supplied resources to rapidly develop and prototype intelligent robotics applications. By standardizing communication, configuration…

Mobile and wearable interfaces and interaction paradigms are highly constrained by the available screen real estate, and the computational and power resources. Although there exist many ways of displaying information to mobile users,…

The paper proposes a novel concept of docking drones to make this process as safe and fast as possible. The idea behind the project is that a robot with a soft gripper grasps the drone in midair. The human operator navigates the robotic arm…

We propose a novel human-drone interaction paradigm where a user directly interacts with a drone to light-paint predefined patterns or letters through hand gestures. The user wears a glove which is equipped with an IMU sensor to draw…

Civilian Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are becoming more accessible for domestic use. Currently, UAV manufacturer DJI dominates the market, and their drones have been used for a wide range of applications. Model lines such as the Phantom…

Quest2ROS2 is an open-source ROS2 framework for bi-manual teleoperation designed to scale robot data collection. Extending Quest2ROS, it overcomes workspace limitations via relative motion-based control, calculating robot movement from VR…

In this paper, we investigate the utility of head-mounted display (HMD) interfaces for navigation of mobile robots. We focus on the selection of waypoint positions for the robot, whilst maintaining an egocentric view of the robot's…

Current motion capture (MoCap) systems generally require markers and multiple calibrated cameras, which can be used only in constrained environments. In this work we introduce a drone-based system for 3D human MoCap. The system only needs…

We envision an integrated process for developing lunar construction equipment, where physical design and control are explored in parallel. In this paper, we describe a technical framework that supports this process. It relies on OpenPLX, a…

Teleoperation of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has recently become an noteworthly research topic in the field of human robot interaction. Each year, a variety of devices is being studied to design adapted interface for diverse purpose…

This work targets what we consider to be the foundational step for urban airborne robots, a safe landing. Our attention is directed toward what we deem the most crucial aspect of the safe landing perception stack: segmentation. We present a…

Teleoperation provides an effective way to collect robot data, which is crucial for learning from demonstrations. In this field, teleoperation faces several key challenges: user-friendliness for new users, safety assurance, and…

This work presents a teleoperated humanoid robot system that can imitate human motions, walk and turn. To capture human motions, a Microsoft Kinect Depth sensor is used. Unlike the cumbersome motion capture suits, the sensor makes the…

In a human-robot interaction system, the most important thing to consider is the safety of the user. This must be guaranteed in order to implement a reliable system. The main objective of this paper is to generate a safe motion scheme that…

Nowadays, there are few unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) capable of flying, walking and grasping. A drone with all these functionalities can significantly improve its performance in complex tasks such as monitoring and exploring different…

We present ActionXPose, a novel 2D pose-based algorithm for posture-level Human Action Recognition (HAR). The proposed approach exploits 2D human poses provided by OpenPose detector from RGB videos. ActionXPose aims to process poses data to…

Robot navigation methods allow mobile robots to operate in applications such as warehouses or hospitals. While the environment in which the robot operates imposes requirements on its navigation behavior, most existing methods do not allow…

Autonomous drones can operate in remote and unstructured environments, enabling various real-world applications. However, the lack of effective vision-based algorithms has been a stumbling block to achieving this goal. Existing systems…
