Comparative Evaluation of an XR Pen-based Control Interface for Semi-Autonomous Mobile Robot Navigation in Service Environments
Service robots remain difficult to deploy in domestic environments, partly because fully autonomous operation is not yet reliable in unpredictable surroundings, and partly because conventional…INTERACT: Interactive Planning for Autonomous Driving via Anchor-Conditioned Prediction and Trust-Region Refinement
Driving in dense urban traffic is interactive: whether a merge or an unprotected turn succeeds depends on how surrounding agents respond to the ego vehicle.Evaluating the Impact of Adaptive Extended Reality on Human-Robot Interaction Across the Reality-Virtuality Continuum
As populations in developed countries age and labor shortages intensify, Cybernetic Avatars (CAs) are proposed to extend human capabilities through robotic embodiments, requiring effective…Onboard Wind-Preview Model Predictive Control Using Pitot-Static Sensing for Multirotor UAVs
Effective wind gust rejection and stable hovering are critical for the outdoor operation of autonomous drones.Enabling a Unified Cross-Domain Representation for Two-Finger Gripper Manipulation via Interaction-Centric Modeling
Achieving robust cross-embodiment generalization in imitation learning demands overcoming a critical representation flaw that inextricably entangles task semantics with hardware-specific visual…CoralPlan: Observation Skill Selection and Execution for Underwater Robotic Inspection
Underwater robotic inspection depends on acquiring views that reveal task-relevant structure.Imp-ACT: Adaptive Impedance Control and Action Chunking with Transformers to Learn Contact-Rich Manipulation from Demonstrations
Contact-rich manipulation requires robots to balance accurate motion tracking with compliant interaction, yet most visual-action policies leave compliance fixed at the controller level.Cybflight: An Embedded Rust Autopilot for Aerial Robotics Research
Bringing an aerial robotics method from simulation to flight should not require rebuilding a mature autopilot or adding a companion computer.Towards VLA-Dreamer: Refining VLA Behavior Using World Models
Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs), while showing strong potential for robot control, require massive amounts of high-quality imitation learning data.See to Reach, Feel to Grasp: Learning A Blind Grasp Reflex for Anthropomorphic Robotic Hands
In this work we study if a robotic hand using proprioception alone can grasp diverse objects with no visual observation.Representation-Guided Generation and Integration of Executable Programs for Robot Manipulation
Building a robotic manipulation system requires connecting perception, planning, and control through carefully designed representations and interfaces.Transformer-based Monte Carlo Localization in Construction Meshes
To be able to perform inspection or digitization tasks, mobile robots on construction sites must be able to localize themselves reliably with respect to a global reference frame that is shared with…RECAST: From Log Replay to Closed-Loop Driving Simulation with View-Complete Actors
Closed-loop driving simulation requires rendered observations to remain reliable as the ego vehicle and surrounding actors move beyond their recorded trajectories, exposing views absent from the…Guiding End-to-End Driving Models with Endpoint-Constrained Trajectory Optimization
End-to-end driving policies are commonly trained through open-loop behavior cloning, yet they must ultimately operate in closed-loop when deployed on a vehicle, creating a fundamental mismatch…Modeling and Generative-AI-Based Design of Load-Adaptive Gravity Balancing Mechanisms
Load-adaptive gravity balancing mechanisms (LA-GBMs) can accommodate various loading conditions by passively changing their characteristics in response to payload variations.InternW0-$Δ$: A World Action Model Bridging Predictive Dynamics and Actions with 20K+ Hours of Open Data
World Action Models (WAMs) jointly model visual dynamics and action generation for generalist robot manipulation.Augmented Reality Interfaces for Human-Robot Collaboration: Development of a ROS 2-Based Sensor Streaming Framework and Validation via SLAM Algorithms
In recent years, Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) has taken on a central role in Industry 4.0 and collaborative robotics, demanding communication channels that are increasingly bidirectional…dRVG: Quadtree-Guided, Resolution-Complete Online Motion Planning for Polygonal Robots in Unknown Environments
We present the dynamic rotation-stacked visibility graph (dRVG), an online motion planner that guides polygonal robots to specified goals in initially unknown, static environ- ments.CognitiveReality: Robot-Agnostic Semantic Gaussian Mapping with an LLM Agent for Immersive Collaborative VR Teleoperation
A photorealistic 3D view tells a teleoperator where a robot is, but not what the scene contains, how well each object has been observed, or how to turn pointing and speech into robot action.ExoLaN: Physics-Consistent Context-Aware Dynamics Learning for Exoskeletons
Task-agnostic assistive exoskeleton control based on human intention offers greater flexibility than conventional approaches that rely on predefined tasks or motion patterns.
