Probabilistic Online Robot Learning via Teleoperated Demonstrations for Remote Elderly Care

Daily household tasks involve manipulation in cluttered and unpredictable environments and service robots require complex skills and adaptability to perform such tasks. To this end, we developed a teleoperated online learning approach with a novel skill refinement method, where the operator can make refinements to the initially trained skill...

Where to improve in human-in-the-loop tele-operated maintenance? A phased task analysis based on video data of maintenance at JET

For the planned teleoperated maintenance of the experimental fusion plant ITER the time performance will be critical. Telemanipulated task execution is however characterised by long execution times compared to similar tasks performed hands-on. There is little quantitative research on task performance of telemanipulated maintenance available...
