As technology continues to evolve at a rapid pace, robots are becoming an increasingly common sight in our daily lives. <br/>Robots that work with humans need to adapt to a variety of users and tasks, and learn to optimise their behaviour. For non-specialist users to interact with such robots, the robot's learning process needs to be transparent...

The large intestines, or colon, is the last part of the digestive tract before the rectum. Colorectal cancer is one of the main reasons that patients need a colon resection. A colon resection is a surgery in which the malignant part of the colon is removed. After removal of the tumor, the two ends of the colon need to be reattached, also called...

Whilst the extraction of teeth (exodontia) remains one of the oldest and most performed surgeries on earth, very little is understood about the procedure itself. Especially in the area of the required movements, torques and forces to remove specific teeth and how these interact with existing tissue. This knowledge gap has been hypothesized to...

Different types of sensors that monitor the driver, the vehicle, and the surroundings are increasingly being implemented in vehicles. These developments are relevant to formal driving test organizations for the use of sensors in the assessment of driving behaviour. However, no guidelines exist about the exact use of sensor-generated data for...

With the introduction of automated driving systems come benefits such as the improvement of traffic safety. However, with an increasing level of automation in vehicles also comes an increase in interaction with in-vehicle technology by drivers while they are meant to supervise the automated driving systems. Due to more interaction with in...

Human operators who are tasked with monitoring automation systems may experience a high visual demand to process the information streams from these systems. The visual sampling behavior of human operators can be described using mathematical models. These models can help designers improve environments where multiple signals are present for human...

Objective: In this thesis, we explore whether augmented and diminished reality interfaces, which, respectively, add and remove information from the environment, improve a pedestrian's feeling of road crossing safety, and how this information should be conveyed to the pedestrian.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Background:...

With the increase in development of self-driving cars, research has been conducted to retain humanized interaction between cars and other road users, such as pedestrians. One way to retain this type of interaction is through the use of external Human-Machine Interfaces (eHMIs). This project aims to contribute to this field of research by...

The main task during operating an automotive vehicle is driving. Nowadays, distractions form a potential risk of claiming the workload necessary for the driving task. Interacting with the User Interface (UI) of the vehicle can be such a distraction. Predicting the next action on the UI can help decrease the risk of distractions. To predict the...

Vibrotactile wearable devices are a non-intrusive and inexpensive means to provide haptic feedback directly on the user’s skin. These devices utilize one or multiple vibrotactile actuators to generate vibrations across the skin and into the tissue. Combining these vibrations in amplitude can create the illusion of a funneled sensation on the...

Abstract— Visual occlusion can cause object detection and classification systems to fail due to swift movement or a soiled, moist or dusty environment. Hence, this asks for a ’blind’ collision detection and classification method. This paper presents a novel blind collision detection and classification scheme for a<br/>heavyweight, low-speed,...

Although the capabilities of automated driving systems (ADS) are growing, the human operator remains in charge of driving the vehicle outside the operational design domain and after requests to intervene. The vehicle sensors required for ADS and new regulation for driver availability monitoring systems stimulate the development of systems that...

Automatic lane change identification can be used in warning systems that alert the driver when drifting off-lane, or in lane-specific navigation systems. Furthermore, they may help road authorities plan better road network design and infrastructure. Though lane-departure warning systems are already commercially available, these systems rely on...

Introduction: This research aims to develop a gripper that is capable of handling deformable and delicate objects at high acceleration (≥10 G) using a contact-reactive grasping approach while moving. Commercial grippers are already suitable for handling various food products at high speed and acceleration when combined with a parallel...

This paper introduces a method for gesture-based teleoperation where the human operator can virtually exist within the remote environment using mixed reality. The proposed method visually mixes the operator’s body with their perception of the remote environment, so that the operator is virtually present at the remote site. The idea is the that...

Mobile soft robots show great potential for exploration of unknown and hard to navigate environments. Sadly, most of these robots are currently being held back by their power sources and control systems. These components, which are usually quite heavy and bulky, need to be integrated before mobile soft robots can cut their tethers and explore...

Driving often requires dividing attention between scanning the environment and following navigation instructions. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of conformal and non-conformal navigation symbology on drivers' visual search. A driving simulator study was conducted where participants drove with conformal and non-conformal...

Background: Automated vehicles are promoted as a safety improvement, but they may also bring a new problem of ‘out of the loop’ errors. Automation support in the form of gaze-contingent feedback might be the solution for these errors. Using the SEEV model, operator’s attention allocation can be predicted and using live gaze data, the driver’s...

Problem statement. The introduction of automated vehicles (AVs) changes the role of the driver and may cause a lack of social interaction with pedestrians. This study proposes a concept where the AV is manoeuvre-based controlled via eye gaze, and the AV driver’s gaze is visualised for the driver and pedestrians. However, it was unknown if gaze...

Currently, active steering systems are implemented in production vehicles to assist the driver by varying the steering response, where the adaptation of the steering response is either initiated by the vehicle or by the driver. Though studies have shown that these steering systems affect the steering performance positively, the effect on driving...
