Robot teleoperation is being explored in a number of application areas, where combining human adaptive intelligence and high precision of robots can provide access to dangerous or inaccessible places, or augment human dexterity. Using virtual reality... Read More about Comparing a Graphical User Interface, Hand Gestures and Controller in Virtual Reality for Robot Teleoperation.

A Study on the Effects of Cognitive Overloading and Distractions on Human Movement During Robot-Assisted Dressing (2022)
Journal Article
Camilleri, A., Dogramadzi, S., & Caleb-Solly, P. (2022). A Study on the Effects of Cognitive Overloading and Distractions on Human Movement During Robot-Assisted Dressing. Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 9, Article 815871. https://doi.org/10.3389/frobt.2022.815871

For robots that can provide physical assistance, maintaining synchronicity of the robot and human movement is a precursor for interaction safety. Existing research on collaborative HRI does not consider how synchronicity can be affected if humans are...
