Learning Behavioral Sequences by Means of Nonlinear Dynamics
We present a software architecture for the behavioral organization of a mobile robot which is entirely based on nonlinear dynamical systems. The... -
Dependability of Mobile Robots in Direct Interaction with Humans
Operating interactive mobile robots in unmodified natural environments such as in museums or at exposition areas impose requirements on the robots,... -
The Robotic Bar – An Integrated Demonstration of a Robotic Assistant
Coming out of the labs, the first robots are currently appearing on the consumer market. Initially they target rather simple application scenarios... -

4 Co-existence: Physical Interaction and Coordinated Motion
Co-existence an co-operation between a human and a machine which can move and act in an autonomous mode involves a form of interaction which goes... -
Simultaneous Localization, Control and Map**
The issue of combining control and estimation together during SLAM has in general been addressed with the idea of online high level trajectory... -
Motion Planning for Domestic Robot Assistants
Service robots serve and assist human beings sharing a common work space. Collision-free motion paths have to be generated in short times for a... -
1 Multi-modal Robot Interfaces
The goal of effective interaction between user and robot assistant makes it essential to provide a number of broadly utilizable and potentially... -
Safety Improvement by Fault Diagnosis and Fault Recovery for the Perceptual System of Mobile Robots
This paper present an approach to safe navigation of autonomous mobile systems within partially known or unknown dynamic environments. In this... -
Towards Benchmarking of Domestic Robotic Assistants

Tactile Interaction between Human and Robot
In the field of service robotics, robots serve and assist human beings. Ways to interact with the robot are required. For human a natural way of... -
A Cooperative Robotic Assistant for Human Environments
CoRA is a robotic assistant whose task is to collaborate with a human operator on simple manipulation or handling tasks. Its sensory channels... -
Behavior Generation for Anthropomorphic Robots by means of Dynamical Systems
This article describes the current state of our research on anthropomorphic robots. Our aim is to make the reader familiar with the two basic... -
Touch: The Intuitive Type of Human and Robot Interaction
The mobile service robots will share their workspaces e.g. offices, hospitals or households with humans. Thus a direct contact between man and... -
3 Learning, Programming and Instructing
Effective assistance demands a system-immanent intelligence in order to achieve high flexibility and robustness. Predefined functionalities serve... -
