  • Assistive Humanoid Robot MARKO: Development of the Neck Mechanism
    MATEC Web of Conferences 121, 08005 (2017) DOI: 10.1051/ matecconf/201712108005 MSE 2017 Assistive humanoid robot MARKO: development of the neck mechanism Marko Penčić1,*, Maja Čavić1, Srđan Savić1, Milan Rackov1, Branislav Borovac1, and Zhenli Lu2 1Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad, TrgDositejaObradovića 6, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia 2School of Electrical Engineering and Automation, Changshu Institute of Technology, Hushan Road 99, 215500 Changshu, People's Republic of China Abstract.The paper presents the development of neck mechanism for humanoid robots. The research was conducted within the project which is developing a humanoid robot Marko that represents assistive apparatus in the physical therapy for children with cerebral palsy.There are two basic ways for the neck realization of the robots. The first is based on low backlash mechanisms that have high stiffness and the second one based on the viscoelastic elements having variable flexibility. We suggest low backlash differential gear mechanism that requires small actuators. Based on the kinematic-dynamic requirements a dynamic model of the robots upper body is formed. Dynamic simulation for several positions of the robot was performed and the driving torques of neck mechanism are determined.Realized neck has 2 DOFs and enables movements in the direction of flexion-extension 100°, rotation ±90° and the combination of these two movements. It consists of a differential mechanism with three spiral bevel gears of which the two are driving and are identical, and the third one which is driven gear to which the robot head is attached. Power transmission and motion from the actuators to the input links of the differential mechanism is realized with two parallel placed gear mechanisms that are identical.Neck mechanism has high carrying capacity and reliability, high efficiency, low backlash that provide high positioning accuracy and repeatability of movements, compact design and small mass and dimensions.

The proposed framework generates whole-body motion using the complete robot dy- namics in the task space satisfying contact constraints. This approach is known as operational- space inverse-dynamics control. The specification of the movements is done through objectives in the task space, and the high redundancy of the system is handled with a prioritized stack of tasks where lower priority tasks are only achieved if they do not interfere with higher priority ones.

  • Systems Overview of Ono a DIY Reproducible Open Source Social Robot
    Systems Overview of Ono A DIY Reproducible Open Source Social Robot Cesar Vandevelde1, Jelle Saldien1, Maria-Cristina Ciocci and Bram Vanderborght2 1 Ghent University, Dept. of Industrial Systems and Product Design, Campus Kortrijk, Belgium {cesar.vandevelde, jelle.saldien, maria-cristina.ciocci}@ugent.be 2Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, Brussels, Belgium [email protected] Abstract. One of the major obstacles in the study of HRI (human-robot interac- tion) with social robots is the lack of multiple identical robots that allow testing with large user groups. Often, the price of these robots prohibits using more than a handful. A lot of the commercial robots do not possess all the necessary features to perform specific HRI experiments and due to the closed nature of the platform, large modifications are nearly impossible. While open source social robots do exist, they often use high-end components and expensive manufactur- ing techniques, making them unsuitable for easy reproduction. To address this problem, a new social robotics platform, named Ono, was developed. The de- sign is based on the DIY mindset of the maker movement, using off-the-shelf components and more accessible rapid prototyping and manufacturing tech- niques. The modular structure of the robot makes it easy to adapt to the needs of the experiment and by embracing the open source mentality, the robot can be easily reproduced or further developed by a community of users. The low cost, open nature and DIY friendliness of the robot make it an ideal candidate for HRI studies that require a large user group.

  • Online Calibration of a Humanoid Robot Head from Relative Encoders, IMU Readings and Visual Data
    2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems October 7-12, 2012. Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal Online Calibration of a Humanoid Robot Head from Relative Encoders, IMU Readings and Visual Data Nuno Moutinho†, Martim Brand˜ao‡, Ricardo Ferreira†, Jos´eGaspar†, Alexandre Bernardino†, Atsuo Takanishi‡,Jos´e Santos-Victor† Abstract— Humanoid robots are complex sensorimotor sys- tems where the existence of internal models are of utmost importance both for control purposes and for predicting the changes in the world arising from the system’s own actions. This so-called expected perception relies on the existence of accurate internal models of the robot’s sensorimotor chains. We assume that the kinematic model is known in advance but that the absolute offsets of the different axes cannot be directly retrieved from encoders. We propose a method to estimate such parameters, the zero position of the joints of a humanoid robotic head, by relying on proprioceptive sensors such as relative encoders, inertial sensing and visual input. (a) iCub head (b) Actuators and Sensors We show that our method can estimate the correct offsets of the different joints (i.e. absolute positioning) in a continuous, online manner. Not only the method is robust to noise but it can as well cope with and adjust to abrupt changes in the parameters. Experiments with three different robotic heads are presented and illustrate the performance of the methodology as well as the advantages of using such an approach. (d) 2o offsets I. INTRODUCTION The application of robotic technologies in fields such as military, industry, service or research has grown quite significantly over the past years.

Up until now, human beings have already co-existed with these machines for more than two centuries, and contemporary laws have developed preventional regulatory frameworks. These frameworks are based on risk assessments to supervise the safety of microelectrical machines which include automobiles, railway systems, elevators and industrial robots, etc. Regulators, especially South Korea and Japan expect human-robot co-existence societies to emerge within the next decade. These next generation robots will be capable of adapting to complex, unstructured environments and interact with humans to assist them with tasks in their daily lifes.

  • Motivational Emotion Generation and Behavior Selection Based on Emotional Experiences for Social Robots
    Motivational Emotion Generation and Behavior Selection based on Emotional Experiences for Social Robots Won Hyong Lee1, Jeong Woo Park1, Woo Hyun Kim1, Hui Sung Lee2, Dong-Soo Kwon1, and Myung Jin Chung1 1Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) 2Hyundai-KIA MOTORS [email protected] Abstract. As the number of social and psychological service robots increase, many robots which have emotions have been developed. In order to implement an emotion generation model, the authors of this paper suggest to employ the unified motivation theory which is proposed by Higgins. In addition, a behavior selection model based on emotional experience is suggested. A joint attention scenario is suggested in which a human and a robot play a 2048 game together with a follow-up interaction. A preliminary pilot test was conducted to examine the proposed method and it performed properly as intended. Finally, further ex- periment plans and expectations are discussed. Keywords: Motivation, Emotion, Attention, Emotional Experiences, Social Robot 1 Introduction People expect that robots will be partners coexisting with human beings and assist human not only physically but also psychologically. According to World Robot Dec- laration which was issued by the international robot fair 2004, one of the expectation for next-generation robots is that robots will be social members in our human society. After 10 years later, nowadays, robots can be found easily in our daily lives and they are being used in different and various social areas such as supporting the elderly’s emotional communication, helping autism treatment, and so on. Social Robotics, is becoming one of the very important topics in the robotic field [1][2].

  • Socially Believable Robots Socially Believable Robots
    DOI: 10.5772/intechopen.71375 Chapter 1 Provisional chapter Socially Believable Robots Socially Believable Robots Momina Moetesum and Imran Siddiqi Momina Moetesum and Imran Siddiqi Additional information is available at the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.71375 Abstract Long-term companionship, emotional attachment and realistic interaction with robots have always been the ultimate sign of technological advancement projected by sci-fi literature and entertainment industry. With the advent of artificial intelligence, we have indeed stepped into an era of socially believable robots or humanoids. Affective com- puting has enabled the deployment of emotional or social robots to a certain level in social settings like informatics, customer services and health care. Nevertheless, social believability of a robot is communicated through its physical embodiment and natural expressiveness. With each passing year, innovations in chemical and mechanical engi- neering have facilitated life-like embodiments of robotics; however, still much work is required for developing a “social intelligence” in a robot in order to maintain the illusion of dealing with a real human being. This chapter is a collection of research studies on the modeling of complex autonomous systems. It will further shed light on how different social settings require different levels of social intelligence and what are the implications of integrating a socially and emotionally believable machine in a society driven by behaviors and actions. Keywords: social robots, human computer interaction, social intelligence, cognitive systems, anthropomorphism, humanoids, roboethics 1. Introduction Robots have been an important part of the industrial setups around the globe for many years now.
