Poola, Lakshmi (author), John, Luis Henrik (author), Godkhindi, Shrutkirthi S. (author), Reddy, Preetham (author), Rao, Deeksha P. (author), Prabhakar, T. V. (author), Venkatesha Prasad, Ranga Rao (author)The recent spate of natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods destroyed buildings and caused loss of lives. Many times, the loss of life is attributed to slow response and not being able to reach the survivors. In such scenarios, the staggering number of deaths in the aftermath of a disaster can be reduced if information about survivors...conference paper 2024

Ruggeri, J. (author), Strube, J. (author), Dowling, K.M. (author)This paper reports on the creation of a novel 3D Hall-effect sensor based on an anisotropically etched, inverted pyramid structure. Specific biasing and sensing contact configurations are employed to extract the in-plane or out-of-plane components of the magnetic field, eliminating cross-sensitivity by symmetry. Simulations were performed to...conference paper 2024

Bakker, S. (author), Knödler, L. (author), Spahn, M. (author), Böhmer, J.W. (author), Alonso-Mora, J. (author)In this paper, we address the problem of real-time motion planning for multiple robotic manipulators that operate in close proximity. We build upon the concept of dynamic fabrics and extend them to multi-robot systems, referred to as Multi-Robot Dynamic Fabrics (MRDF). This geometric method enables a very high planning frequency for high...conference paper 2024

Wang, S. (author), Zong, Qihang (author), Yang, Huiru (author), Huang, Qianming (author), Ye, Huaiyu (author), French, P.J. (author)In recent years, flexible strain sensors based on metal cracks have garnered significant interest for their exceptional sensitivity. However, striking a balance between sensitivity and detection range remains a significant challenge, which often limits its wider application. Herein, we introduce an innovative laser transmission pyrolysis...conference paper 2024

Rieger, A. (author), Bredius, Frank (author), Theune, Mariët (author), Pera, M.S. (author)An essential characteristic for unbiased and diligent information-seeking that can enable informed opinion formation and decision-making is intellectual humility (IH), the awareness of the limitations of one's knowledge and opinions. While researchers have recognized the potential to boost IH in individuals, the effect of such interventions...conference paper 2024

(author)In Industry 5.0, cognitive robots and workers will engage in evolving and reciprocal relations, which we call worker-robot relationships (WRRs). To enable evidence-based work futures with workers, we must co-develop WRRs and understand their impact on work, workers, management, and society. To this end, we posit that the HRI field should work...conference paper 2024

Gomez Ortega, A. (author), Noortman, Renee (author), Bourgeois, Jacky (author), Kortuem, G.W. (author)Most people are entangled with an ever-growing trail of data that results from their daily interactions with products and services. Yet, they are hardly aware of the nature and characteristics of the data within this trail. We design dataslip, a provocative artifact that materializes the personal data trail into a receipt and aims to elicit...conference paper 2024

(author)Continuous rounds of quantum error correction (QEC) are essential to achieve faulttolerant quantum computers (QCs). In each QEC cycle, thousands of ancilla quantum bits (qubits) must be read out faster than the qubits' decoherence time (<<T2∗~120μs for spin qubits). To address this urgent need, several CMOS receivers operating at...conference paper 2024

Top, Jakob Dirk (author), Jonker, C.M. (author), Verbrugge, Rineke (author), de Weerd, Harmen (author)Epistemic logic can be used to reason about statements such as ‘I know that you know that I know that φ ’. In this logic, and its extensions, it is commonly assumed that agents can reason about epistemic statements of arbitrary nesting depth. In contrast, empirical findings on Theory of Mind, the ability to (recursively) reason about mental...conference paper 2024

Martinelli, Cristiano (author), Coraddu, A. (author), Cammarano, Andrea (author)Meta-heuristic optimisation algorithms are high-level procedures designed to discover near-optimal solutions to optimisation problems. These strategies can efficiently explore the design space of the problems; therefore, they perform well even when incomplete and scarce information is available. Such characteristics make them the ideal...conference paper 2024
