While most robots in human robot interaction scenarios take instructions from humans, the ideal would be that humans and robots collaborate with each other. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Communicating with Computer program proposes the collaborative blocks world scenario as a testbed for this. This scenario requires the human and th...

... the block world domain in Fig. 1 [9]. The robot has its own blocks and the human has some blocks. The two share a table and some other blocks on the table. Suppose that the human communicates to the robot the sentence "Add another blue stack of the same height!." Even if we assume that the robot is able to recognize the color of the blocks, create, and execute plans ...

... addition to the above, it is easy to see that the robot cannot accomplish the task in the situation in Fig. 1 if it is limited to the typical actions in the block domain (e.g, pick up, put down, or un/stack blocks) and uses only its own blocks. It is because of its planning process-looking for a plan to create a stack of two blue blocks-fails. What should the robot do? Can it reply back that it needs an additional blue block? Can it ask for ...

With the growing popularity of Human-Robot Interactions, a series of robotic assistive devices have been created over the last decades. However, due to the lack of easily integrable resources, the development of these custom made devices turns out to be long and expensive. Therefore, the SMARCOS, a novel off-the-shelf Smart Variable Stiffness Actua...
