"Artistic and musical expression is an important part of human experience, and can be considered a universal language above any cultural diversities. In particular, the communicative power of voice is worldwide known, since voice is the first musical instrument ever exploited to create and perform music. During the last twenty years, novel scientific and technological achievements have given birth ...

Whole-body Adaptive Locomotion and Manipulation (WALK-MAN)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

Description The WALK-MAN project aims to develop a humanoid robot that can operate in buildings that were damaged following natural and man-made disasters. The robot will demonstrate new skills:-Dextrous, powerful manipulation skills - e.g. turning a heavy valve of lifting collapsed masonry, -robust balanced locomotion - walking, crawling ov ...

"Although many advances have been made in the mechatronics andcomputational hardware of artificial hands, the state of the artappears to be only marginally closer to a satisfactory functionalapproximation of the human hand than it was twenty years ago. Inmy analysis, the main reasons for this are not merely techni-cal,but invest some fundamental issues in the understanding of theorganization and c ...

Workplace injuries cost European societies up to 4% of GNP. Over 25% of Europeans experience back injury due to work. Robots are traditionally inflexible to use for many manual handling tasks. The world robotics market is set to double to $66Bn pa in the next 15 years. Europe could corner the industrial collaborative human-robotic part of that market (currently Asia). The goal of Robo-Mate is to a ...

Description Humankind needs a new class of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to address the new challenges that deep sea exploration and mechanization create. But autonomous robots are not very good at being autonomous. Operating in real environments, they easily get stuck, often ask for help, and generally succeed only when attempting sim ...

Several industrial sectors today are still using linear sequences of operations where the same manual and automated tasks are repeated in each cycle. This paradigm is efficient when aiming at maximum capacity and considering no breakdowns, but very inefficient in case of line de-saturation. AUTORECON proposes the enablement, development and introduction of a) autonomous, exchangeable and mobile pr ...
