“…A group of researchers from the University of Lorraine, France explicitly study the mutual synchronisation (MS in short) between participants while shaking hands along with the forces exerted on the palms [45,[47][48][49]79]. They firstly study the hand motions by having the participants wear a glove with an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and 6 force sensors placed around the palm [48].…”

“…The MS between participants is analysed using the Fourier analysis of the input signals (mainly accelerations). However, wavelet transforms are shown to qualitatively estimate the different stages of a handshake interaction as well [49].…”

For some years now, the use of social, anthropomorphic robots in various situations has been on the rise. These are robots developed to interact with humans and are equipped with corresponding extremities. They already support human users in various industries, such as retail, gastronomy, hotels, education and healthcare. During such Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) scenarios, physical touch plays a central role in the various applications of social robots as interactive non-verbal behaviour is a key factor in making the interaction more natural. Shaking hands is a simple, natural interaction used commonly in many social contexts and is seen as a symbol of greeting, farewell and congratulations. In this paper, we take a look at the existing state of Human-Robot Handshaking research, categorise the works based on their focus areas, draw out the major findings of these areas while analysing their pitfalls. We mainly see that some form of synchronisation exists during the different phases of the interaction. In addition to this, we also find that additional factors like gaze, voice facial expressions etc. can affect the perception of a robotic handshake and that internal factors like personality and mood can affect the way in which handshaking behaviours are executed by humans. Based on the findings and insights, we finally discuss possible ways forward for research on such physically interactive behaviours.

“…Human-human handshake analysis: In [9], a conceptual framework for handshaking between humans and robots is presented, which divides the handshake into three stages: hand reaching, hand gripping and shaking and synchronization, emphasizing the fact that each part of the movement at various stages needs to be more human-like for a more realistic perception. Another study [11] utilizes wavelet transformation to thoroughly evaluate the physical properties of a handshake, such as the acceleration of the human arm. It was found that the handshaking phases in [9] can be described qualitatively using wavelet scalogram analysis.…”

More daily interactions are happening in the digital world of the metaverse. Providing individuals with means to perform a handshake during these interactions can enhance the overall user experience. In this paper, we put forward the design and implementation of two right-handed underactuated Digital Twin robotic arms to mediate the physical handshake interaction between two individuals. This allows them to perform a handshake while they are in separate locations. The experimental findings are very promising as our evaluation shows that the participants were highly interested in using our system to shake hands with their loved ones when they are physically separated. With this Digital Twin robotic arms system, we also found a correlation between the handshake characteristics and personality traits of the participants from the handshake data collected during the experiment.
