Abstract:

Controlling multiple autonomous robots and human-robot system in coordination are interesting and challenging research topics, especially to the mobile robot system without explicit inter-robot communication. In this talk, two robot systems having physical interactions among humans and robots will be introduced. In these systems, each robot is controlled as if it has a specified impedance dynamics, and a leader-follower type control algorithm is incorporated for estimating the human/leader robot desired motion based on the intentional force/moment applied by the human and the information of an environment. Passive RT Walking Helper and Wearable Walking Helper are mainly designed for elderly and disabled as a dynamical walking assistant without explicit motion identification. These examples will inspire possible applications of the human-robot interaction in near future.

Recently, we also proposed a concept and architecture of Human Motion Map by representing extracted human behavior in the human living space as a map, by using human state estimation function and mapping function of SLAM. The concept is implemented in a mobile robot system as a high dimensional map structure with multi-layer representing some basic motions of human being in particular place in the map, which is generated from individual observations of hundred’s experiments. A motion feature descriptor is developed based on Human Motion Map for representing various walking behaviors in indoor environments. OpenPose based 3D motion method is currently incorporated in the system currently for enhancing the dimension Human Motion Map system. Furthermore, some recent results on caging based cooperative micro-bubble robot control for living cells microassembly, nano scale SLAM based localization, and nano-partical manipulation with nano-hand strategy will be presented.
