Abstract— Robust vision-based grasping is still a hard problem for humanoid robot systems. When being restricted to using the camera system built-in into the robot’s head for o...
Abstract— In this paper we present a case study of cooperation of a strongly heterogeneous robot team, composed of a highly articulated humanoid robot and a wheeled robot with la...
— This paper presents the development of a contact interaction-based navigation strategy for a biped humanoid robot with the aim of supporting current visual-based navigation. Th...

— This paper studies an optimal planning of falling motions of a human-sized humanoid robot to reduce the damage of the robot. We developed a human-sized robot HRP-2FX which has ...
— Humanoid robots as assistance or educational robots is an important research topic in the field of robotics. Especially the communication of those robots with a human operator...
Abstract— Imitation learning, or programming by demonstration (PbD), holds the promise of allowing robots to acquire skills from humans with domain-specific knowledge, who nonet...
— This paper presents a motion pattern generator of humanoid robots that walks on a flat plane, steps and a rough terrain. It is guaranteed rigorously that the desired contact b...
— A long cherished goal in artificial intelligence has been the ability to endow a robot with the capacity to learn and generalize skills from watching a human teacher. Such an ...
— In this paper, the development of humanoid robot HRP-3 is presented. HRP-3, which stands for Humanoid Robotics Platform–3, is a human-size humanoid robot developed as the suc...
— For humanoid robots that should assist humans in their daily life the capability of an adequate interaction with human operators is a key feature. A key factor for human like i...
