Prediction and Production of Human Reaching Trajectories for Human-Robot Interaction

Published: 01 March 2018 Publication History

Abstract

In human-human interactions, individuals naturally achieve fluency by anticipating the partner»s actions. This predictive ability is largely lacking in robots, leading to stilted human-robot interactions. We aim to improve fluency in human-robot reaching motions using a unified predictive model of human reaching motions. Using this model, we allow the robot to infer human intent, while also applying the same model to generate the robot»s motion to make its intent more transparent to the human. We conducted a study on human reaching motion and constructed an elliptical motion model that is shown to yield a good fit to empirical data. In future studies, we plan to confirm the effectiveness of this model in predicting human intent and conveying robot intent for achieving fluency in human-robot handovers.
