Adaptation and coaching of periodic motion primitives through physical and visual interaction

Simulated and real world results in the application domain of wiping a surface are presented on three different robotic platforms. Results of the three robotic platforms, namely a 7 degree-of-freedom Kuka LWR-4 robot, the ARMAR-IIIa humanoid platform and the Sarcos CB-i humanoid robot, depict different methods of adaptation to the environment and coaching.
