What does it take to cook a meal with a humanoid robot? Students Steve Han, Mingyo Seo, Hye-Young Chung, Kyutae Sim, Yifan Xu, Yuke Zhu, Seung Hyeon Bang and Carlos Gonzalez, myself and Prof. Yuke Zhu team up to explore this question as well as how we work together as a team from a Team Science perspective.
We had a fantastic year with many talented students in our lab. We said goodbye to UT MS student Mehar Jaiswal and MS visiting student Johannes Drexler from TUM. We look forward to the next generation of students and visitors to come in the summer and fall.
We are very pleased to hear that our former PhD student will become assistant professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Texas A&M starting next Fall. Huge congratulations Gray!
His most notable work in the lab was to design a computational framework for strength augmentation of lower body exoskeletons and deploy it in the SAGIT 5 exoskeleton system.
Seung Hyeon and Carlos explore more precise whole-body control capabilities using Whole-Body Impulse Control which combines Inverse Kinematic and Inverse Dynamic controllers:
Graduate and undergraduate students perform teleoperate tasks to collect data for imitation learning using our DRACO3 humanoid robot.
Kyle had a great time presented his workshop paper on “Learning Contact-based Navigation in Crowds” at the 2nd Workshop on Human-Interactive Robot Learning (HIRL 2023) at the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction.
Friends and colleagues. The IEEE-RAS Humanoids 2023 website is up and running! It will be held in Austin, USA on December 12-14. Note that the paper deadline is July 1st. We look forward to sharing this experience with academics and industry within the field of humanoids and human-centered robots. Additional details on the particular topics for the conference will be posted soon.
