IEEE BIO-SPITCH.D. UCBM-POLITO
onlineHere's a brand-new event collaboratively organized by the IEEE Student Branches of Politecnico di Torino (PoliTo) and Università Campus Bio-Medico (UCBM) of Rome. Bio-sPitch.D was conceived after the reciprocal recognition of similar events organized by the two branches, where PhD students of these universities discuss their research to share their knowledge with other IEEE members, eventually improving networking. The UCBM Branch of Rome organizes the sPeach.D. (https://edu.ieee.org/it-unicampus/speach-d/), while the PoliTo branch organizes the PitchD (https://r8.ieee.org/sb-polito/pitchd-the-phds-pitch/). Therefore, we decided to co-organize a brand-new event, named IEEE Bio-sPitch.D., where Andrea (PoliTo) and Joshua (UCBM) will talk about their bio-related PhD research topics. Joshua Di Tocco (Università Campus Bio-Medico) will present a talk entitled: "Smart textiles for respiratory rate and joint monitoring" Andrea Mongardi (Politecnico di Torino) will present a talk entitled "A bio-inspired embedded system for sEMG-based gesture recognition" - Date: 16 December 2020 - 5.30 PM - Location: YouTube The event will be the first opportunity for us to improve the collaboration and networking among italian IEEE Student Branches. Join us to listen to their pitches and to meet the members of the other student branch. The event will be streamed on the Politecnico di Torino IEEE Student Branch YouTube channel! The event will be supported by: - IEEE Women in Engineering Politecnico di Torino - IEEE Italy Section - IEEE Sensors Council Italy Chapter - IEEE youngprofessional Affinity Group Italy - www.ingegneriabiomedica.org UCBM official page: https://edu.ieee.org/it-unicampus/ieee-bio-spitch-d-ucbm-polito/ PoliTo official page: https://r8.ieee.org/sb-polito/ieee-bio-spitch-d-ucbm-polito/ YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/IEEEPoliTOStudentBranch
Interaction control in humans and with robots
ABSTRACT My lecture will present experiments and computational modelling to i) understand how humans learn to skilfully interact with their environment and with each other, and ii) endow robots with similarly successful control behaviours. Impedance control describes how biological or robotic motor commands can shape the mechanical interaction with the environment. We have previously provided the first clear experimental evidence of impedance control in humans and described the underlying computational mechanism, which led to a novel adaptive behaviour for robots. This talk will first present how this behaviour can be/is used for haptic exploration of rigid and soft objects in robots and humans. I will then concentrate on our recent research to understand how humans exchange haptic information through touch in order to coordinate their actions. By examining the behaviours of individuals when their right hands are physically connected, we could show how haptic information enables humans to estimate partners’ motor plan and use it to improve one own performance. Embodied as a robot partner, this model was verified as it induced the same improvements in motor performance as a human partner. We further elucidated how the sensory exchange is influenced by the interaction mechanics and how its benefits increase with the number of partners. These results elucidate the haptic communication taking place between physically interacting humans and promise collaborative robot systems with human-like assistance. BIOSKETCH Dr. Etienne Burdet is Chair of Human Robotics at the Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine in UK. He is also a visiting Professor at University College London. He holds an MSc in Mathematics (1990), an MSc in Physics (1991), and a PhD in Robotics (1996), all from ETH-Zurich. He was a postdoctoral fellow with TE Milner from McGill University, Canada, JE Colgate from Northwestern University, USA and Mitsuo Kawato of ATR in Japan. Professor Burdet's group uses an integrative approach of neuroscience and robotics to: i) investigate human motor control, and ii) design efficient systems for training and rehabilitation, which are tested in clinical trials and commercialised.

L’IEEE Student Branch dell’Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma e l’IEEE Sensors Council Italy Chapter promuovono la Wearables Challenge. L’obiettivo della Challenge è la realizzazione di sistemi indossabili che consentano: (i) il monitoraggio di parametri vitali o cinematici; (ii) l’acquisizione e il salvataggio dei dati in real-time; (iii) la stima del parametro di interesse. I lavori sviluppati dai partecipanti saranno valutati in base ai seguenti criteri : 1. Indossabilità del dispositivo; 2. Prestazioni del dispositivo; 3. Originalità della soluzione proposta; 4. Esposizione del lavoro svolto. La commissione valutatrice sarà composta da: Dott. Andrea Rossi Prof. Emiliano Schena Dott. Ing. Carlo Massaroni Dott. Ing. Daniela Lo Presti Dott. Ing. Luigi Raiano Ing. Joshua Di Tocco Ing. Martina Zaltieri Dott.ssa Anna Tortoriello Dott.ssa Laura Manzetti Dott. Riccardo Sabbadini MORE JOIN LIVE
