Abstract. We introduce an approach to multimodal generation of verbal and nonverbal contributions for virtual characters in a multiparty dialogue scenario. This approach addresses ...
In this paper, we describe simple techniques for object group manipulation, an important operation in user interaction with a Virtual Environment. All presented manipulation techn...
Abstract—Cooperative gestures are a key aspect of humanhuman pro-social interaction. Thus, it is reasonable to expect that endowing humanoid robots with the ability to use such g...

We describe a time-domain passivity control methodology that uses programmable eddy current viscous dampers to prevent a user from extracting energy from a haptic interface. A pas...
We demonstrate the use of eddy current braking as programmable, fast turn-on, physical damping to improve both the impedance range and stability of a haptic interface while render...
