Cooperative Solving of a Children’s Jigsaw Puzzle between Human and Robot: First Results

Contents

Intelligent human robot cooperation still is a challenging field of research. At the Institute of Process Control and Robotics at the University of Karlsruhe we intend to use an anthropomorphic robot to learn how to solve a children's jigsaw puzzle together with a human tutor. Instead of choosing a straight forward engineer's approach, we have decided to combine a psychologist's and a computer scientist's views; the first results are presented in this paper.
