Demos

1. Instantaneous visuohaptic exploration of CT data for surgical planning

2. BRIDGET: Bridging conventional and robot-assisted arm rehabilitation

3. AI for early movement onset recognition and personalized support in robot-assisted gait rehabilitation

1. Exploring patient-specific CT data by instantaneous visuohaptic rendering will improve surgical outcomes due to personalized surgical planning, training, and device development.

2. BRIDGET is a novel approach that allows therapists to instruct the arm rehabilitation robot ARMin intuitively. The robot can learn and replicate the therapist’s way of supporting the patient from one teach trial.

3. Task specific support in robot-assisted gait rehabilitation with the FLOAT rehabilitation robot might be a key for enabling patients to train more gait-related tasks than ground level walking.

1. Hopping with a series-parallel elastic actuation

2. How to grasp like a bird

3. Perching with a Bat-Inspired Robot

4. Flying like a Hawk

1. This demo shows the concept of a custom developed series-parallel elastic actuation through a robotic hopper.
2. We demonstrate a claw that can rapidly and passively grasp objects as a UAV flies by at high speed.

3. We are working towards designing a bat-inspired robot with morphing wings to perch passively on vertical poles through a crash-landing approach.

4. In this demo we show footage of the avian-inspired morphing drone in flight and present the drone to demonstrate its morphing capabilities.

1. Aerial Manipulation

2. Multi-Robot Mapping, Localization and Exploration in Challenging Environments

1. We will show our latest omni-directional micro aerial vehicle for aerial interaction.

2. Video demo of our robusts and efficient mapping and localization framework that allows multiple flying and ground robots to explore large scale challenging environments using multiple sensor modalities

1. Cellulans, new species emerging from the dungeons of RLC

2. Teacher-orchestrated activities in classroom with Robots

3. iReCHeck project

4. Thymio VPL3

1. Emergent behaviors are indeed a “powerful idea” that cut across disciplines and can lead to the understanding of a large class of phenomena. In our project, we are developing interactive play-based activities to engage students to learn about emergent behaviors and complexity concepts using the tangible Cellulo robotic swarm platform.

2. Managing a classroom with 20 students playing activities with 10 more robots is not a trivial task! Here, we want to make teachers’ life easier with orchestarble learning activities and orchestration tools. Come and try our new math-oriented robotic activity and see how a teacher can gain awareness with it.

3. ReCHeck project goal is to develop a system that can autonomously perform activities for handwriting enhancing, using a social robot and an iPad with apple pencil. The interaction between robot and child should is driven by the measurement of the child’s posture and writing analysis provided by the Dynamico app.

4. Visual Programming Language (VPL) 3 is a graphical interface where users drag and drop blocks to create their first program in 5 minutes. Executions can be performed in a simulated environment or in real world Thymio robots.
