This paper provides a review of humanoid robots and mind control humanoid robots. Information was obtained mainly from journals and conference proceedings on robotics and mind control technology. We primarily focus on providing an overview of commercially available robots and prototype research-stage humanoid robots in addition to mind control humanoid robot systems. First, a history and overview of the humanoid robot is presented. Then, typical mind control humanoid robot systems are described, including the relevant brain-computer interface and the whole control framework. Finally, the remaining research challenges in the field of humanoid robot safety are summarized.

[abstFig src='/00280002/01.jpg' width=""300"" text='A humanoid robot riding an excavator' ]The following article reviews past and current tendencies and derives and describes opportunities for construction robotics and automation. There substantial evidence in the construction industry, that conventional construction methodology has reached its limits. Although approaches of construction robotics are still in an innovation or seed phase, it can be expected that with continuous effort put into research and development these approaches may soon enter a growth phase and encounter adoption on way larger scales. Furthermore, the article describes the different application of construction robotics, proving the ability and efficiency of robot systems in diverse fields. Currently, it can already be observed that single task construction robots, on-and-off site construction robots and automated construction sites are becoming even more and more crucial factors, in order to enhance the overall construction efficiency and building sustainability.

Spectrum Disorders

The main feature of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) is the difficulty in communicating with others and struggling to maintain a functional contact with the environment. This work presents the implementation of a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for Digital PECS Therapy that will enable ASD population to overcome their impairments. The GUI was integrated with a depth sensor, to recognize hand gestures of autistic subjects, a monitor, where specific tools have been displayed, and a humanoid robot (Aldebaran Robotics NAO), used as a medium that will allow people with ASD to communicate their needs. Subjects can select the displayed pictures they want with hand movements, and the robot pronounces the represented objects. The system has been validated during therapeutic sessions with autistic subjects and the results are here reported and discussed supporting the idea that the presence of the robot helps to elicit triadic interactions in ASD.
