Abstract
Robots existed as separate entities till now, but the horizons of a symbiotic human-robot partnership are impending. Despite all the recent technical advances in terms of hardware, robots are still not endowed with desirable relational skills that ensure a social component in their existence. This article draws from our experience as roboticists in Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) with humanoid robots and presents some of the recent advances made towards realizing intuitive robot behaviors and partner-aware control involving physical interactions.
