Teaching robots to interact naturally with humans

Movement Coordination in Human-Human and Human-Robot Interaction

Movement coordination between two human persons is examined in a pick-and-place sequence in order to extract and transfer general principles and constraints to human-robot interaction situations. [more]

Eyetracker-Based Driver State and Intention Recognition for Realtime Control and Configuration of Human-Machine Interfaces in Vehicles

Eyetracking

A novel low-latency remote head-mounted eyetracker will be enhanced and integrated into an automotive environment to detect the driver’s state and intentions. [more]

From cognition to behavior: Insights from neuronal activity

Task-related and contextual factors in human cognition

By using advanced neuro-cognitive techniques, such as electro-encephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), the effects of task-related and contextual factors on human cognition are investigated. [more]

Cogito – Plan-based Control of Robotic Agents

A Framework and Programming Infrastructure for the Plan-based Control of Cognitive Technical Systems

We investigate the plan-based control of autonomous mobile robots performing everyday pick-and-place tasks in human environments. Our approach applies AI planning techniques to transform default plans that can be inferred from instructions into flexible, high-performance robot plans. To find high performance plans the planning system applies transformations such as carrying plates to the table by stacking them or leaving cabinet doors open while setting the table, which require substantial changes of the control structure of the intended activities.
