Fast and Comfortable Robot-to-Human Handover for Mobile Cooperation Robot System.

In this work, we present a method that enables a mobile robot to hand over objects to humans efficiently and safely by combining mobile navigation with visual perception. Our robotic system can map its environment in real time and locate objects to pick up. It uses advanced algorithms to grasp objects in a way that suits human preference and employs path planning and obstacle avoidance to navigate back to the human user. The robot adjusts its movements during handover by analyzing the human's posture and movements through visual sensors, ensuring a smooth and collision-free handover. Tests of our system show that it can successfully hand over various objects to humans and adapt to changes in the human's hand position, highlighting improvements in safety and versatility for robotic handovers.
