ColRobot Technical workshop on Human-machine interfaces

at University of Coimbra, Portugal September 21, 2016

Intuitive human-machine interfaces (HMIs) have experienced a great evolution in the last decades. Accurate, reliable, multimodal, with integrated processing and relatively inexpensive sensors have contributed decisively to the development of HMIs. The HMI of a given equipment is today a key element to the acceptance of such equipment by the end-users.
