Handshakes are common greetings, and humans therefore have strong priors of what a handshake should feel like. This makes it challenging to create compelling and realistic human-robot handshakes, necessitating the consideration of human haptic perception in the design of robot hands. At its most ...
Handshakiness: Benchmarking for Human-Robot Hand Interactions Download Publication PDF Abstract Handshakes are common greetings, and humans, therefore, have strong priors of what a handshake should feel like. This makes it challenging to create compelling and realistic human-robot handshakes, neces...
There are also some types of robot hand that are developed for use in assisting humans, often as a prosthetic replacement for a lost limb. This type of hand has been created to replace older forms of prosthesis, which may provide very limited functionality or merely act as an aesthetic repla...

Notably, sex between humans and robots could set a good example for humans in some ways (e.g. by being consensual) while simultaneously having other features that do not function to set a good example for humans. For instance, if the sex robot is built to look like a human child or a...
In the future, robots may perform cooperative tasks with humans in daily life. In this paper, the authors focus on a hand-over motion as an example of cooperative work between a human and a robot, and propose an algorithm which enables a robot to perform a human-like motion. First the ...
Robot's hand the ability to operate like a real one is without any human input is an exciting step forward. These autonomous hands could be used in the future to deliver robotic surgeons, to increase the productivity of assembly lines and to replace humans in dangerous jobs such as bomb ...
First we analyze trajectories and velocity patterns of a hand-over motion performed by two humans. From this experimental results we extract some conditions to realize safety and kind receiver's motion. We then plan the robot's motion considering these conditions based on an instantaneous optimal ...
As robots become more prevalent in society, investigating the interactions between humans and robots is important to ensure that these robots adhere to the social norms and expectations of human users. In particular, it is important to explore exactly how the nonverbal behaviors of robots influence...
For my purpose, the dream goal is to show one grasp that is good enough: manually shaping the robot hand around the object, and then have the robot try it a few times on its own until that grasp is really stable. This is usually called One-Shot demonstration learning....
