H2XO

Relieving heavy-duty work with a haptically-controlled robot assistant that learns on the job.

If first html tag is indented, and this include is called after a list, the html tag is considered a list element, and things go wrong. Leaving a hidden unindented line here

The H2XO project aims to develop a bimanual human extender robot to provide physical assistance to workers while learning tasks in real-time for later autonomous execution. The platform integrates a novel haptic interface that relays both kinesthetic and tactile information to the operator, enabling intuitive control over complex tasks. Utilizing AI, the system will continuously learn from human strategies through visual, tactile, and kinesthetic data. The project addresses the need for solutions in industries with physically demanding tasks, aiming to relieve human operators from physical stress while maintaining control and safety, bridging the gap between training and execution phases.

This project was recently awarded. More coming soon, stay tuned!
