Figuring out how humans and robots can collaborate to effectively carry out tasks together is a rapidly growing area of interest to the scientists and engineers that design robots as well as the people who will use them. For successful collaboration between humans and robots, communication is key.
Teaching Robots to Anticipate Human Preferences for Enhanced Collaboration - Unite.AI
In a new paper , which was a finalist for the best paper award at the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), computer science researchers from USC Viterbi aim to teach robots to predict human preferences in assembly tasks.
“When working with people, a robot needs to constantly guess what the person will do next,” said lead author Heramb Nemlekar, a USC computer science PhD student supervised by Stefanos Nikolaidis, an assistant professor of computer science.

Video shows robot trash cans collecting refuse in New York City
Robots aren't just lining up to do dangerous jobs such as helping police , fighting fires or assisting in disaster zones . They may wind up taking out the trash, too.
Researchers at Cornell University recently deployed a pair of robotic trash cans in New York to test how people would respond to them.
These Girl Scouts are ready to rock and roll with robots, with a little help from JPL – ...
A Girl Scouts robotics team mentored by engineers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory has advanced to the World Championships of the FIRST Robotics Competition.
FIRST stands for For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology, and the competition challenges teens with limited time and resources, where they need to raise funds, design a team “brand,” hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a ...
