This paper introduces CognitiveOS, a disruptive system based on multiple transformer-based models, endowing robots of various types with cognitive abilities not only for communication with humans but also for task resolution through physical interaction with the environment. The system operates smoothly on different robotic platforms without extra tuning. It autonomously makes decisions for task execution by analyzing the environment and using information from its long-term memory. The system underwent testing on various platforms, including quadruped robots and manipulator robots, showcasing its capability to formulate behavioral plans even for robots whose behavioral examples were absent in the training dataset. Experimental results revealed the system's high performance in advanced task comprehension and adaptability, emphasizing its potential for real-world applications. The chapters of this paper describe the key components of the system and the dataset structure. The dataset for fine-tuning step generation model is provided at the following link: link coming soon
The current capabilities of robotic systems make human collaboration necessary to accomplish complex tasks effectively. In this work, we are introducing a framework to ensure safety in a human-robot collaborative environment. The system is composed of a wearable 2-DOF robot, a low-cost and easy-to-install tracking system, and a collision avoidance algorithm based on the Artificial Potential Field (APF). The wearable robot is designed to hold a fiducial marker and maintain its visibility to the tracking system, which, in turn, localizes the user's hand with good accuracy and low latency and provides haptic feedback to the user. The system is designed to enhance the performance of collaborative tasks while ensuring user safety. Three experiments were carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed system. The first one evaluated the accuracy of the tracking system. The second experiment analyzed human-robot behavior during an imminent collision. The third experiment evaluated the system in a collaborative activity in a shared working environment. The results show that the implementation of the introduced system reduces the operation time by 16% and increases the average distance between the user's hand and the robot by 5 cm.
