While prior studies have provided us with an initial understanding of people's location-sharing privacy preferences, they have been limited to Western countries and have not investigated the impact of the granularity of location disclosures on people?s privacy preferences. We report findings of...

Purpose Sensorless passive lead-through programming (LTP) is a promising physical human-robot interaction technology that enables manual trajectory demonstrations based on gravity and friction compensation. The major difficulty lies in static friction compensation during LTP start-up. Instead of...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to enhance control accuracy, energy efficiency and productivity of customized industrial robots by the proposed multi-objective trajectory optimization approach. To obtain accurate dynamic matching torques of the robot joints with optimal motion, an improved...
