Modern, torque-controlled service robots can regulate contact forces when interacting with their environment. Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a powerful method to solve the underlying control problem, allowing to plan for whole-body…
Lifting objects, whose mass may produce high wrist torques that exceed the hardware strength limits, could lead to unstable grasps or serious robot damage. This work introduces a new Center-of-Mass (CoM)-based grasp pose adaptation method,…
This paper presents a novel approach to enhance Model Predictive Control (MPC) for legged robots through Distributed Optimization. Our method focuses on decomposing the robot dynamics into smaller, parallelizable subsystems, and utilizing…
Wearable sensors have permeated into people's lives, ushering impactful applications in interactive systems and activity recognition. However, practitioners face significant obstacles when dealing with sensing heterogeneities, requiring…
The prevalence of smartphone and consumer camera has led to more evidence in the form of digital images, which are mostly taken in uncontrolled and uncooperative environments. In these images, criminals likely hide or cover their faces…
Humans' ability to smoothly switch between locomotion and manipulation is a remarkable feature of sensorimotor coordination. Leaning and replication of such human-like strategies can lead to the development of more sophisticated robots…
As humans move around, performing their daily tasks, they are able to recall where they have positioned objects in their environment, even if these objects are currently out of their sight. In this paper, we aim to mimic this spatial…
In this paper, a liquid lens-based imaging receiver is proposed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) visible light communication (VLC) systems. By dynamically adjusting the focal length and orientation angles of the liquid lens, the…
Tracking 3D human motion from egocentric multi-camera headset is challenged by severe egomotion, partial visibility or occlusions and lack of training data. Existing methods designed for monocular video often require static or slowly-moving…
Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) enable portable, multibody motion capture (MoCap) in diverse environments beyond the laboratory, making them a practical choice for diagnosing mobility disorders and supporting rehabilitation in clinical or…
Wearable robotic hand rehabilitation devices can allow greater freedom and flexibility than their workstation-like counterparts. However, the field is generally lacking effective methods by which the user can operate the device: such…
Marker-based Optical Motion Capture (OMC) systems and associated musculoskeletal (MSK) modelling predictions offer non-invasively obtainable insights into in vivo joint and muscle loading, aiding clinical decision-making. However, an OMC…
Multi-person total motion capture is extremely challenging when it comes to handle severe occlusions, different reconstruction granularities from body to face and hands, drastically changing observation scales and fast body movements. To…
Robust robot manipulation in unstructured environments often requires understanding object properties that extend beyond geometry, such as material or compliance-properties that can be challenging to infer using vision alone. Multimodal…
Many tasks performed by two humans require mutual interaction between arms such as handing-over tools and objects. In order for a robotic arm to interact with a human in the same way, it must reason about the location of the human arm in…
Although many studies have investigated markerless motion capture, the technology has not been applied to real sports or concerts. In this paper, we propose a markerless motion capture method with spatiotemporal accuracy and smoothness from…
Driving simulators are increasingly used in research and development. However, simulators often cause motion sickness due to downscaled motion and unscaled veridical visuals. In this paper, a motion cueing algorithm is proposed that reduces…
Wearable sensors such as Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) are often used to assess the performance of human exercise. Common approaches use handcrafted features based on domain expertise or automatically extracted features using time…
High-precision manipulation has always been a developmental goal for aerial manipulators. This paper investigates the kinematic coordinate control issue in aerial manipulators. We propose a predictive kinematic coordinate control method,…
In this paper, we present a real-time whole-body planner for collision-free legged mobile manipulation. We enforce both self-collision and environment-collision avoidance as soft constraints within a Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme…
