Pathfinder Vision: Tele-operation Robot Interface in Consideration of Geometry for Supporting Future Prediction
(The Eurographics Association, 2014) Maeda, Naoya; Morita, Jun; Sugimoto, Maki; Takuya Nojima and Dirk Reiners and Oliver Staadt
Pathfinder Vision is a visual presentation interface for remote robot operation. This interface assists operators by planning the future routes of the robot by presenting images which take into consideration the physical obstructions of the surrounding environment. We also took the occlusion of the 3D environment into account when rendering the CG model of the robot by calculating the current state and 3D geometry of the robot. By visualizing the predicted future with occlusion, our proposed methods makes it possible to prevent collisions while operating tele-operated robots. This system helps operators to find a more secure future trajectory of the robot.
