    Humanoid robot chats intelligently with interviewer

    Published on Apr 26, 2013

    Gay Singaporeans are often criticised for not producing children and contributing to expected decline in population if foreign talent is not imported. All futurologists point to the eventual attainment and surpassing of human intelligence by robots. They will eventually augment our population.
    In this video, a humanoid robot is able to comprehend and answer an interviewer with great wit even before we have reached the stage of being able to imbue a robot with human-level intelligence.

    “Who’s Johnny?” Anthropomorphic framing in human-robot
    interaction, integration, and policy

    Author: Kate Darling
    Discussant: Ken Goldberg

    As we increasingly create spaces where robotic technology interacts with humans, our tendency to project lifelike qualities onto robots raises questions around use and policy. Based on a human-robot-interaction experiment conducted in our lab, this paper explores the effects of anthropomorphic framing in the introduction of robotic technology. It discusses concerns about anthropomorphism in certain contexts, but argues that there are also cases where encouraging anthropomorphism is desirable. Because people respond to framing, framing could serve as a tool to separate these cases.

    Development of Motion Rendering using Laban Movement Analysis to Humanoid Robots Inspired by Real-Time Emotional Locus of Music Signals
    The goal of this study is to explore the possibility of humanoid robots developing motion models inspired by the mechanisms of music emotions locus. In this way, the robot can become new modeling tools to expand the domain of motion rendering for emotions expression by anchoring it to a physical body. Consequently, complete robot control loops can be instantiated and not only algorithms but whole emotional behaviors validated.

    Fast whole-body motion control of humanoid robots with inertia constraints

    Feb 21, 2020

    Video attachement for paper
    Grzegorz Ficht and Sven Behnke :
    "Fast Whole-Body Motion Control of Humanoid Robots with Inertia Constraints"
    IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), Paris, France, May 2020.

    We introduce a new, analytical method for generating whole body motions for humanoid robots, which approximate
    the desired Composite Rigid Body~(CRB) inertia. Our approach uses a reduced five mass model, where four of the masses are
    attributed to the limbs and one is used for the trunk. This compact formulation allows for finding an analytical
    solution that combines the kinematics with mass distribution and inertial properties of a humanoid robot.
    The positioning of the masses in Cartesian space is then directly used to obtain joint angles with relations based on
    simple geometry. Motions are achieved through the time evolution of poses generated through the desired foot positioning
    and CRB inertia properties. As a result, we achieve short computation times in the order of tens of microseconds. This makes
    the method suited for applications with limited computation resources, or leaving them to be spent on higher-layer tasks
    such as model predictive control. The approach is evaluated by performing a dynamic kicking motion with an igus Humanoid Open Platform robot.
