Article Abstract
This paper presents the development of a visual-perception system on a dual-arm mobile robot for human-robot interaction. This visual system integrates three subsystems. Hand gesture recognition is utilized to trigger human-robot interaction. Engagement and intention of the participants are detected and quantified through a cognitive system. Visual servoing uses YOLO to identify the object to be tracked and hybrid, model-based tracking to follow the object's geometry. The proposed visual-perception system is implemented in the developed dual-arm mobile robot, and experiments are conducted to validate the proposed method's effects on human-robot interaction applications.

Department of Robotics Engineering, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA, United States.
Multimodal perception is essential for enabling robots to understand and interact with complex environments and human users by integrating diverse sensory data, such as vision, language, and tactile information. This capability plays a crucial role in decision-making in dynamic, complex environments. This survey provides a comprehensive review of advancements in multimodal perception and its integration with decision-making in robotics from year 2004-2024.

Agentic AI refers to autonomous systems that can perceive their environment, make decisions, and take actions to achieve goals with minimal or no human intervention. Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have opened new pathways to imbue robots with such "agentic" behaviors by leveraging the LLMs' vast knowledge and reasoning capabilities for planning and control. This survey provides the first comprehensive exploration of LLM-based robotic systems integration into agentic behaviors that have been validated in real-world applications.

Background: Socially assistive robots (SARs) are robotic technology platforms equipped with sensing (eg, through audio or visual) and acting (eg, speech and movement) capabilities to interact socially with users. SARs are increasingly adopted in physiotherapy to aid patients in their rehabilitation journey by providing feedback, motivation, and encouragement. However, while many studies have explored SAR implementation in physiotherapy, research involving clinical populations remains scarce, and the overall state of SAR deployment is unclear.

Purpose: It is important to explore the relationship between humans and chatbots to improve human-robot interaction in the era of artificial intelligence. This study aims to explore the effects of attractions and social attributes of chatbots on users' media dependency and usage intention of chatbots, as well as the role of users' para-social interaction and emotional support gained from chatbots.
Methods: A total of 1,553 responses were collected based on a cross-sectional online survey.
