Communication mechanisms for cooperative human-robot manipulation tasks in unstructured environments

People: Camilo Perez QuinteroMartin Jagersand

Humans teach each other manipulation tasks through gestures and pointing. We develop an HRI where the robot interprets spatial gestures using comuter vision and carries out manipulation tasks...
