With the natural human tendency to minimise metabolic cost, mechanical guidance may however prevent efficient short term learning and retention. In this work, we explore the effect of providing haptic feedback to the not active hand during a tracking task. We test four types of haptic feedback: task- or error-related information, no information and irrelevant information. The results show that feedback provided to the hand not carrying out the tracking task did not improve task performance. However, irrelevant information to the task worsened performance, and negatively influenced the participants' perception of helpfulness, assistance, likability and predictability.},

We developed a virtual reality platform with a three-arm avatar that enabled us to systematically investigate the effect of the supernumerary limb's appearance on their perception and motion control performance. A pilot study with 14 participants exhibited similar performance, workload and preference in human-like or robot-like appearance with a trend of preference for the robotic appearance.},

abstract = {Spinal motor neurons receive a wide range of input frequencies. However, only frequencies below ca. 10 Hz are directly translated into motor output. Frequency components above 10 Hz are filtered out by neural pathways and muscle dynamics. These higher frequency components may have an indirect effect on motor output, or may simply represent movement-independent oscillations that leak down from supraspinal areas such as the motor cortex. If movement-independent oscillations leak down from supraspinal areas, they could provide a potential control signal in movement augmentation applications. We analysed high-density electromyography (HD-EMG) signals from the tibialis anterior muscle while human subjects performed various mental tasks. The subjects performed an isometric dorsiflexion of the right foot at a low level of force while simultaneously (1) imagining a movement of the right foot, (2) imagining a movement of both hands, (3) performing a mathematical task, or (4) performing no additional task. We classified the channel-averaged HD-EMG signals and the cumulative spike train (CST) of motor-units using a filter bank and a linear classifier. We found that in some subjects, the mental task can be classified from the channel-averaged HD-EMG signals and the CST in oscillations above 10 Hz. Furthermore, we found that these oscillation modulations are incompatible with a systematic and task-dependent change in force level. Our preliminary findings from a limited number of subjects suggest that some mental task-induced oscillations from supraspinal areas leak down to spinal motor neurons and are discriminable via EMG or CST signals at the innervated muscle.},

abstract = {Recently, muscle interfaces have been used to control external devices through the activation of single motor units. In the present study, we proposed and validated two different vibro-tactile feedback strategies designed to convey information about the firing rate of two motor units active at the same time. In a two-alternative forced-choice task, participants had to discriminate the higher vibration frequency among the ones of two vibrotactile stimulators placed on their arms. Spike strategy and continuous strategy were tested in two different experiments and motor units’ activation was simulated. The spike strategy directly translates the discharge activity of motor units into a vibratory burst with a 1-to-1 conversion, i.e. each spike of one motor unit triggers a single burst of the corresponding vibrator. This was evaluated in two body configurations, i.e. same forearm versus different arms. The continuous strategy mapped the discharge activity of motor units into a continuous vibration exploiting the entire operative range of vibrotactile stimulators. A single-body configuration was tested (i.e. two different arms). Participants’ responses were fitted with a psychometric sigmoid curve (i.e. a psychometric model commonly applied to detection and discrimination tasks), and the discrimination accuracy index was used to evaluate the feedback strategies. Results from Experiment 1 showed that the continuous strategy worked better when the stimulators were placed on two different arms, but overall discrimination performance was poor. Experiment 2 showed that both the continuous strategy conveyed vastly superior overall performance compared to the continuous strategy.},

abstract = {Somatosensation greatly increases the ability to control our natural body. This suggests that supplementing vision with haptic sensory feedback would also be helpful when a user aims at controlling a robotic arm proficiently. However, whether the position of the robot and its continuous update should be coded in a extrinsic or intrinsic reference frame is not known. Here we compared two different supplementary feedback contents concerning the status of a robotic limb in 2-DoFs configuration: one encoding the Cartesian coordinates of the end-effector of the robotic arm (i.e., Task-space feedback) and another and encoding the robot joints angles (i.e., Joint-space feedback). Feedback was delivered to blindfolded participants through vibrotactile stimulation applied on participants’ leg. After a 1.5-hour training with both feedbacks, participants were significantly more accurate with Task compared to Joint-space feedback, as shown by lower position and aiming errors, albeit not faster (i.e., similar onset delay). However, learning index during training was significantly higher in Joint space feedback compared to Task-space feedback. These results suggest that Task-space feedback is probably more intuitive and more suited for activities which require short training sessions, while Joint space feedback showed potential for long-term improvement. We speculate that the latter, despite performing worse in the present work, might be ultimately more suited for applications requiring long training, such as the control of supernumerary robotic limbs for surgical robotics, heavy industrial manufacturing, or more generally, in the context of human movement augmentation.},

abstract = {Supernumerary robotic arms have a high potential to increase human capacities to perform complicated tasks; e.g., having a third arm could increase the user's strength, precision, reachability, and versatility. However, having a robotic manipulator working in extreme proximity to the user raises new challenges in terms of safety; i.e., uncontrolled and hazardous collisions with the user's body parts and the environment. In this preliminary work, we show that most of these safety considerations can be extracted from standardized norms and translated into kinematics constraints for the robot. Thus, we propose a quadratic programming approach to achieve safe inverse-kinematics and physical interaction for supernumerary arms. We validate our approach in designing a safe supernumerary arm using the 7-Dof Kinova ® Gen3 robot.},

abstract = {During daily activities, humans routinely manipulate objects bimanually or with the help of a partner. This work explored how bimanual and dyadic coordination modes are impacted by the object's stiffness, which conditions inter-limb haptic communication. For this, we recruited twenty healthy participants who performed a virtual task inspired by object handling, where we looked at the initiation of force exchange and its continued maintenance while tracking. Our findings suggest that while individuals and dyads displayed different motor behaviours, which may stem from the dyad's need to estimate their partner's actions, they exhibited similar tracking accuracy. For both coordination modes, increased stiffness resulted in better tracking accuracy and more correlated motions, but required a larger effort through increased average torque. These results suggest that stiffness may be a key consideration in applications such as rehabilitation, where bimanual or external physical assistance is often provided.},

abstract = {Assisting humans in collaborative tasks is a promising application for robots, however effective assistance remains challenging. In this paper, we propose a method for providing intuitive robotic assistance based on learning from human natural limb coordination. To encode coupling between multiple-limb motions, we use a novel interval type-2 (IT2) polynomial fuzzy inference for modeling trajectory adaptation. The associated polynomial coefficients are estimated using a modified recursive least-square with a dynamic forgetting factor. We propose to employ a Gaussian process to produce robust human motion predictions, and thus address the uncertainty and measurement noise of the system caused by interactive environments. Experimental results on two types of interaction tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach, which achieves high accuracy in predicting assistive limb motion and enables humans to perform bimanual tasks using only one limb.},

abstract = {“Crossmodal correspondences” are the consistent mappings between perceptual dimensions or stimuli from different sensory domains, which have been widely observed in the general population and investigated by experimental psychologists in recent years. At the same time, the emerging field of human movement augmentation (i.e., the enhancement of an individual’s motor abilities by means of artificial devices) has been struggling with the question of how to relay supplementary information concerning the state of the artificial device and its interaction with the environment to the user, which may help the latter to control the device more effectively. To date, this challenge has not been explicitly addressed by capitalizing on our emerging knowledge concerning crossmodal correspondences, despite these being tightly related to multisensory integration. In this perspective paper, we introduce some of the latest research findings on the crossmodal correspondences and their potential role in human augmentation. We then consider three ways in which the former might impact the latter, and the feasibility of this process. First, crossmodal correspondences, given the documented effect on attentional processing, might facilitate the integration of device status information (e.g., concerning position) coming from different sensory modalities (e.g., haptic and visual), thus increasing their usefulness for motor control and embodiment. Second, by capitalizing on their widespread and seemingly spontaneous nature, crossmodal correspondences might be exploited to reduce the cognitive burden caused by additional sensory inputs and the time required for the human brain to adapt the representation of the body to the presence of the artificial device. Third, to accomplish the first two points, the benefits of crossmodal correspondences should be maintained even after sensory substitution, a strategy commonly used when implementing supplementary feedback.},

abstract = {Supernumerary robotic limbs are mainly designed to augment the physical capabilities of able-bodied individuals, in a wide range of contexts from body support to surgery. When they are worn as wearable devices, they naturally provide inherent feedback due to the mechanical coupling with the human body. The user can, thus, perceive the interaction with the environment by relying on a combination of visual and inherent feedback. However, these can be inefficient in accomplishing complex tasks, particularly in the case of visual occlusion or variation in the environment stiffness. Here, we investigated whether, in a force-regulation task using a wearable supernumerary robotic arm (SRA), additional vibrotactile feedback can increase the control performance of participants compared to the inherent feedback. Additionally, to make the scenario more realistic, we introduced variations in the SRA’s kinematic posture and in the environment stiffness. Notably, our findings revealed a statistically significant improvement in user performance over all the evaluated metrics while receiving additional vibrotactile feedback. Compared to inherent feedback alone, the additional vibrotactile feedback allowed participants to exert the required force faster (p < 0.01), to maintain it for longer (p < 0.001), and with lower errors (p < 0.001). No discernible effects related to the SRA’s posture or environment stiffness were observed. These results proved the benefits of providing the user with additional vibrotactile feedback to convey the SRA’s force during interaction tasks.},

To emancipate from these mechanical constraints, we propose a new hybrid system using a virtually worn robotic arm in augmented-reality, and a real robotic manipulator servoed on such virtual representation. We aim at bringing an illusion of wearing a robotic system while its weight is fully deported, thinking that this approach could open new horizons for the study of wearable robotics without any intrinsic impairment of the human movement abilities.},
