Abstract: In this article, we report on our investigation of kinesthetic feedback as a means to provide precision, accuracy, and mitigation of arm fatigue in spatial manipulation tasks. Most works on spatial manipulation discuss the ...

Abstract: In this paper, we report on our investigation of human-AI collaboration for mind-mapping. We specifically focus on problem exploration in pre-conceptualization stages of early design. Our approach leverages the notion of ...

Abstract: Bi-manual (two-handed) actions have shown notable success in rehabilitative and therapeutic applications from the point of motor symmetry. Recent studies have shown that symmetry in actions is attributed to sensorimotor ...

Abstract: The generalizability of a convolutional encoder–decoder based model in predicting aerodynamic flow field across various flow regimes and geometric variation is assessed. A rich master dataset consisting of 11,000+ simulations ...

Abstract: In this work, we present a framework for data-driven digital twins for real-time machine monitoring. Data-driven digital twins are gaining prominence in a variety of industrial applications owing to their ability to capture ...

Abstract: We investigate speech-based input as a means to enable reflective thinking for younger individuals (middle- and high-school students) during design iterations. Verbalization offers a unique way to externalize ideas in early ...

Abstract: We present a novel methodology to generate mechanical structures based on fractal geometry using the chaos game, which generates self-similar point-sets within a polygon. Using the Voronoi decomposition of these points, ...

Abstract: We present an experimental investigation of spatial audio feedback using smartphones to support direction localization in pointing tasks for people with visual impairments (PVIs). We do this using a mobile game based on a ...

Abstract: Swarm manufacturing is an emerging manufacturing paradigm that employs a heterogeneous swarm of robots to accomplish complex hybrid manufacturing tasks. Cooperative 3D printing (C3DP), a specialized form of swarm manufacturing, ...

Abstract: We explore verbalization as a means for quick-and-dirty 3D shape exploration in early design. Our work stems from the knowledge gap that the fundamental principles necessary to operationalize speech as a viable means for ...
