This book collects the scientific contributions presented at the European Robotics Forum (ERF) 2024 that is the reference event for the EuRobotics association.

This book collects the scientific contributions presented at the European Robotics Forum (ERF) 2024 that is the reference event for the EuRobotics association. In the months leading up to the forum, a direct call was launched to the many industrial players who are members of EuRobotics and who were asked to specify particularly important areas of development according to their roadmap. The outcome of this survey and the topics of the Workshops held during the forum have been used to calibrate an industry-driven scientific program where research objectives meet industrial needs.The contributions collected in the book cover a wide spectrum of robotics research, encompassing mechatronics, algorithms, Artificial Intelligence, Human-Robot Collaboration and many robotic applications.

This monograph deals with energy based control of interactive robotic interfaces and the port-Hamiltonian framework is exploited both for modeling and controlling interactive robotic interfaces. Using the port-Hamiltonian framework, it is possible to identify the energetic properties that have to be controlled in order to achieve a desired interactive behavior and it is possible to build a port-Hamiltonian controller that properly regulates the robotic interface by shaping its energetic properties. Thanks to its generality, the port-Hamiltonian formalism allows to model and control also complex interactive robotic interfaces in a very natural way. In this book, a port-Hamiltonian approach for regulating the interaction between a robot and a local environment, a virtual environment (i.e. haptic interfaces) and a remote environment (i.e. bilateral telemanipulation systems) is developed.
