This is the video accompanying the paper entitled “Interactive Manipulation Between a Human and a Humanoid: When Robots Control Human Arm” (IROS2011)1.
In the paper, a novel approach in human/robot collaboration is presented, where the robot controls not only its arm but also the human’s by means of functional electrical stimulation (FES). The video illustrates the method, as well as experimental results in a “ball in the hoop” task using healthy blindfolded subjects.
