A lensless camera is an imaging system that uses a mask in place of a lens, making it thinner, lighter, and less expensive than a lensed camera. However, additional complex computation and time are required for image reconstruction. This…
Communication barriers pose significant challenges for individuals with hearing and speech impairments, often limiting their ability to effectively interact in everyday environments. This project introduces a real-time assistive technology…
In our daily life, we often encounter objects that are fragile and can be damaged by excessive grasping force, such as fruits. For these objects, it is paramount to grasp gently -- not using the maximum amount of force possible, but rather…
In this paper, a real-time signal processing frame-work based on a 60 GHz frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar system to recognize gestures is proposed. In order to improve the robustness of the radar-based gesture recognition…
People with visual impairments face numerous challenges when interacting with their environment. Our objective is to develop a device that facilitates communication between individuals with visual impairments and their surroundings. The…
Non-verbal communication is part of our regular conversation, and multiple gestures are used to exchange information. Among those gestures, pointing is the most important one. If such gestures cannot be perceived by other team members, e.g.…
The collaborative robot market is flourishing as there is a trend towards simplification, modularity, and increased flexibility on the production line. But when humans and robots are collaborating in a shared environment, the safety of…
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar-based gesture recognition is gaining attention as a key technology to enable intuitive human-machine interaction. Nevertheless, the significant challenge lies in obtaining large-scale, high-quality mmWave…
This paper proposes a novel active visuo-tactile based methodology wherein the accurate estimation of the time-invariant SE(3) pose of objects is considered for autonomous robotic manipulators. The robot equipped with tactile sensors on the…
Recent advances in teleoperation have enabled sophisticated manipulation of dexterous robotic hands, with most systems concentrating on guiding finger positions to achieve desired grasp configurations. However, while accurate finger…
This research paper describes a realtime system for identifying American Sign Language (ASL) movements that employs modern computer vision and machine learning approaches. The suggested method makes use of the Mediapipe library for feature…
We are concerned with a novel sensor-based gesture input/instruction technology which enables human beings to interact with computers conveniently. The human being wears an emitter on the finger or holds a digital pen that generates a time…
This paper introduces and evaluates the GestureKeeper, a robust hand-gesture recognition system based on a wearable inertial measurements unit (IMU). The identification of the time windows where the gestures occur, without relying on an…
WiFi-based sensing has aroused immense attention over recent years. The rationale is that the signal fluctuations caused by humans carry the information of human behavior which can be extracted from the channel state information of WiFi.…
Accurate shape sensing, only achievable through distributed proprioception, is a key requirement for closed-loop control of soft robots. Low-cost power efficient optoelectronic sensors manufactured from flexible materials represent a…
Optical see-through augmented reality (OST-AR) overlays digital targets and annotations on the physical world, offering promising guidance for hands-on tasks such as medical needle insertion or assembly. Recent work on OST-AR depth…
Object manipulation is fundamental to virtual reality (VR) applications, yet conventional fingertip haptic devices fail to render certain tactile features relevant for immersive and precise interactions, as i.e. detection of edges. This…
Vision-based methods are commonly used in robotic arm activity recognition. These approaches typically rely on line-of-sight (LoS) and raise privacy concerns, particularly in smart home applications. Passive Wi-Fi sensing represents a new…
We introduce AirWare, an in-air hand-gesture recognition system that uses the already embedded speaker and microphone in most electronic devices, together with embedded infrared proximity sensors. Gestures identified by AirWare are…
Sign Language helps people with Speaking and Hearing Disabilities communicate with others efficiently. Sign Language identification is a challenging area in the field of computer vision and recent developments have been able to achieve near…
