The Baxter Robot Hands off a Cable to a Human

Caption

A sample experimental setup for human-robot object handoffs. Each experiment tested 30 randomly ordered handoffs, of which 10 each were generated using the constant, relative and personal schemes. The pose of the human test subject's torso was measured at the moment of the handoff using the eight motion capture markers on the chest and back.
