ABSTRACT
One goal of assistive robotics is to design interactive robots that can help disabled people with tasks such as fetching objects. When people do this task, they coordinate their movements closely with receivers. We investigated how a robot should fetch and give household objects to a person. To develop a model for the robot, we first studied trained dogs and person-to-person handoffs. Our findings suggest two models of handoff that differ in their predictability and adaptivity.

Predictability in human-robot interactions for autistic children
HRI '19: Proceedings of the 14th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot InteractionA commonly used argument for using robots in interventions for autistic children is that robots can be very predictable. Even though robot behaviour can be designed to be perceived as predictable, a degree of perceived unpredictability is unavoidable ...
Autonomous Selection and Printing of 3D Models for People Who Are Blind
Special Issue on Fabrication Technologies and Do-It-Yourself Accessibility and Regular Papers3D models are an important means for understanding spatial contexts. Today these models can be materialized by 3D printing, which is increasingly used at schools for people with visual impairments. In contrast to sighted people, people with visual ...
Exploring the lexical and acoustic consequences of referential predictability
DAARC'11: Proceedings of the 8th international conference on Anaphora Processing and ApplicationsFindings from various domains suggest that predictability is an important component of language processing. We report psycholinguistic research suggesting that predictability also influences referential processing, in the form of reduced acoustic ...
