NOIR 2.0: Neural Signal Operated Intelligent Robots for Everyday Activities
Kim, Tasha, Wang, Yingke, Cho, Hanvit, Hodges, Alex
Brain-robot interfaces (BRIs) represent a major milestone in the fields of art, science, and engineering. The Neural Signal Operated Intelligent Robots (NOIR) [1], unveiled in 2023, is a versatile, intelligent BRI system that employs non-invasive electroencephalography (EEG). The system operates on the concept of hierarchical shared autonomy, where humans set high-level objectives, and the robot carries out these objectives through the execution of detailed motor commands. At the time of its introduction, NOIR demonstrated its general-purpose nature by being able to handle a variety of tasks (20 everyday activities) and showing broad accessibility, as it requires minimal training for use by the general public. Moreover, NOIR is adaptive and intelligent, equipped with a broad set of skills that enable it to autonomously perform low-level actions. Human intentions are conveyed, interpreted, and executed by the robots through parameterized primitive skills, such as Pick(obj-A) or MoveTo(x,y).
