Distributed observer-based prescribed performance control for multi-robot deformable object cooperative teleoperation (2023)
Journal Article

In this paper, a distributed observer-based prescribed performance control method is proposed for using a multi-robot teleoperation system to manipulate a common deformable object. To achieve a stable position-tracking effect and realize the desired...

Impedance learning for human-guided robots in contact with unknown environments (2023)
Journal Article

Previous works have developed impedance control to increase safety and improve performance in contact tasks, where the robot is in physical interaction with either an environment or a human user. This article investigates impedance learning for a rob... Read More about Impedance learning for human-guided robots in contact with unknown environments.

A novel human-robot skill transfer method for contact-rich manipulation task (2023)
Journal Article

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to enhance the robot’s ability to complete multi-step contact tasks in unknown or dynamic environments, as well as the generalization ability of the same task in different environments. Design/methodology/approac... Read More about A novel human-robot skill transfer method for contact-rich manipulation task.

Dynamic motion primitives-based trajectory learning for physical human-robot interaction force control (2023)
Journal Article

One promising function of interactive robots is to provide a specific interaction force to human users. For example, rehabilitation robots are expected to promote patients' recovery by interacting with them with a prescribed force. However, motion un...

A human-robot collaboration method for uncertain surface scanning (2023)
Journal Article

Robots are increasingly expected to replace humans in many repetitive and high-precision tasks, of which surface scanning is a typical example. However, it is usually difficult for a robot to independently deal with a surface scanning task with uncer... Read More about A human-robot collaboration method for uncertain surface scanning.

Recent advancements in multimodal human–robot interaction (2023)
Journal Article

Robotics have advanced significantly over the years, and human–robot interaction (HRI) is now playing an important role in delivering the best user experience, cutting down on laborious tasks, and raising public acceptance of robots. New HRI approach... Read More about Recent advancements in multimodal human–robot interaction.

Design and control of a novel bionic mantis shrimp robot (2023)
Journal Article

This article presents the development of a novel bionic robot, which is inspired by agile and fast mantis shrimp in the ocean. The developed bionic mantis shrimp robot has ten rigid-flexible swimming feet (pleopods) for swimming propulsion and a rope...

Distributed collaborative control of redundant robots under weight-unbalanced directed graphs (2023)
Journal Article

In consideration of the limitation of the communication and the possibility that redundant robots might deliver information at different power levels, cases under weight-unbalanced directed graphs from the network topology perspective are in larger a... Read More about Distributed collaborative control of redundant robots under weight-unbalanced directed graphs.

A constrained framework based on IBLF for robot learning with human supervision (2023)
Journal Article

Dynamical movement primitives (DMPs) method is a useful tool for efficient robotic skills learning from human demonstrations. However, the DMPs method should know the specified constraints of tasks in advance. One flexible solution is to introduce th...
