During the last two months we focused on the following aspect. • The algorithm for mapping human synergies onto robotic hands with dissimilar kinematic structures has been tested through several simulation with a three fingers eight joints fully actuated hand model. In particular, improvements with...

Project C-Kompai Second ECHORD public summary. Month of Setember In these two months of development of the project (August and September), the physical Kompai platform has been adapted to hold the cognitive brain, C-BRAIN, with the exception of an extra sensor that is going to be added, the kinect sensor. The kinect has...

An ad-hoc pointing detection and parameter extraction methods has been implemented on ROS, running real-time and on-line. We have implemented an ad-hoc version to be able to focus on implementational issues. The adhoc poiting recognition will be replaced by a parametric HMM within the next reporting period.
Steps during the...

In the current reporting period the project participants started in October with the processing of Task 4 and Task 5. At this time we finished a major objective of Task 4 by generating a virtual physical model of the KUKA LWR and by implementing main components of the interface between the LWR control and the software system....

A new Manual Guidance Device based will be developed for robot programming, to enhance toolpath definition accuracy and system usability. To be compliant to safety requirements a mix of software and hardware solutions will be implemented to achieve redundant control of robot speed/position in the working area. The working...

Parameter identification
The frequency model described in month 8 works for a one dimensional excitation with a centered mass. This theoretical result has to be prooved in a first experiment.To verify it on the moving platform a special test mass was developed. The basic test assumption states that the load separates in two...
