The CoDyCo Project Achievements and Beyond: Toward Human Aware Whole-Body Controllers for Physical Human Robot Interaction.

The success of robots in real-world environments is largely dependent on their ability to interact with both humans and said environment. The FP7 EU project CoDyCo focused on the latter of these two challenges by exploiting both rigid and compliant contacts dynamics in the robot control problem. Regarding the former, to properly manage interaction dynamics on the robot control side, an estimation ...
