Abstract: A robot remote operation control device includes, in robot remote operation control for an operator to remotely operate a robot capable of gripping an object, an information acquisition unit that acquires operator state information on a state of the operator who operates the robot, an intention estimation unit that estimates a motion intention of the operator who causes the robot to perform a motion, on the basis of the operator state information, and a gripping method determination unit that determines a gripping method for the object on the basis of the estimated motion intention of the operator.

Abstract: The present invention provides an Advanced Driver Assistant System (ADAS) 10 and an operating method thereof, which work on long time scales, and guide an ego vehicle 20 away from upcoming risks, rather than only reacting to risks to mitigate the consequences of a crash. To this end, information comprising the orientation of other traffic participants 30, 40, 50, 60, a free driving area of the ego vehicle 20, and/or a driving trajectory of the vehicle 20 as intended by the driver is taken into account, in order to determine potential risks.

Abstract: A robot controller including a multitude of simultaneously functioning robot controller units. Each robot controller unit is adapted to receive an input signal, receive top-down information, execute an internal process or dynamics, store at least one representation, send top-down information, issue motor commands wherein each motor command has a priority. The robot controller selects one or several motor commands issued by one or several units based on their priority. Each robot controller unit may read representations stored in other robot controller units.

Abstract: An interactive robot comprises visual sensors, manipulators and a computer. The computer is configured to generate proto-objects from output signals from the visual sensors and store the proto-objects in memory of the computer. The proto-objects represent blobs of interest in an input field of the visual sensors identified at least by a three dimensional position label. The computer also generates objects hypotheses representing a category of the object based on evaluation of the proto-objects with respect to different behavior-specific constraints; and determines a visual tracking movement of the visual sensor, a movement of a body of the robot or a movement of the manipulators based on the object hypotheses and at least one proto-object as a target.
