MONROE
MONROE - Hyper-Modular Open Networked RObot systems with Excellent performance Robots so far suffer from several up to now necessary trade-offs that result in: - Stiff robots are heavy (in terms of moving mass), and thereby slow and/or too expensive. - Parallel robots providing stiffness and high forces have small and...

ODEUO
ODEUO - Inner Oscillation Detection and Evaluation of Unknown test Objects The ODEUO experiment aims to take what is a relatively simple job for humans, ie. the detection of spare or lose parts by shaking, and make it a manipulation task solvable by mechanics. ODEUO investigates the sensorless detection and evaluation of...

SPEAKY
SPEAKY - SPEAKY for Robots SPEAKY for Robots (S4R) aims at fostering the definition and deployment of voice user interfaces (VUIs) in robotic applications where human-robot interaction is required. S4R promotes speech technologies transfer towards manufacturing processes, to provide semi-automatic speech-based interface...

TACTIP
TACTIP - Tactile fingertip for robots The TACTIP project addresses a number of robotics issues: the need for improved tactile sensors for robot manipulators and the creation of tactile probes for many applications. Tactile probes will need to function over a range of materials with different deformation properties. In...
