A Novel Haptic Feature Set for the Classification of Interactive Motor Behaviors in Collaborative Object Transfer (2020)
Journal Article
Al-saadi, Z., Sirintuna, D., Kucukyilmaz, A., & Basdogan, C. (2021). A Novel Haptic Feature Set for the Classification of Interactive Motor Behaviors in Collaborative Object Transfer. IEEE Transactions on Haptics, 14(2), 384-395. https://doi.org/10.1109/toh.2020.3034244

Haptics provides a natural and intuitive channel of communication during the interaction of two humans in complex physical tasks, such as joint object transportation. However, despite the utmost importance of touch in physical interactions, the use o...

Haptic-Guided Teleoperation of a 7-DoF Collaborative Robot Arm with an Identical Twin Master (2020)
Journal Article
Singh, J., Srinivasan, A. R., Neumann, G., & Kucukyilmaz, A. (2020). Haptic-Guided Teleoperation of a 7-DoF Collaborative Robot Arm with an Identical Twin Master. IEEE Transactions on Haptics, 13(1), 246-252. https://doi.org/10.1109/toh.2020.2971485

In this study, we describe two techniques to enable haptic-guided teleoperation using 7-DoF cobot arms as master and slave devices. A shortcoming of using cobots as master-slave systems is the lack of force feedback at the master side. However, recen...
