A Human - machine interface for teleoperation of arm manipulators in a complex environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper discusses the feasibility of using conguration space (C-space) as a means of visualization and control in operator-guided real-time motion of a robot arm manipulator. The motivation is to improve performance of the human operator in tasks involving the manipulator motion in an environment with obstacles. Unlike some other motion planning tasks, operators are known to make expensive mistakes in such tasks, even in a simpler two-dimensional case. Using an example of a two-dimensional arm manipulator, we show that translating the problem into C-space improves the operator performance remarkably, on the order of magnitude compared to the usual work space control.

متن کاملHuman Augmentation in Teleoperation of Arm Manipulators in an Environment with Obstacles
This paper discusses a novel approach to combining human and machine intelligence in teleoperation of 6 degree of freedom (DOF) arm manipulators. Two algorithms are presented that can operate in near real time and can deal with an unknown environment. We capitalize on the fact that the operator needs help primarily in the areas where the arm is near the obstacles; this lowers the computational ...
متن کاملMatching Feedback with Operator Intent for Effective Human-machine Interfaces
Various roles for operators in human-machine systems have been proposed. The proposed research hypothesizes that underlying all of these views is the law that operators perform best when given feedback of the same type as their intent. To test the hypothesis, operator performance with position control, rate control, and position control with the ghost arm will be measured to see if giving posit...
متن کاملReal-time collision avoidance in teleoperated whole-sensitive robot arm manipulators
In traditional teleoperation systems, the human operator is saddled with two distinct tasks: 1) moving the robot arm to its desired position, and 2) avoiding obstacles that can obstruct the robot arm manipulator. To accomplish these tasks, an area of current teleoperation research concentrates on providing the operator with as much input information about the task site as possible using, for ex...
متن کاملToward Advanced Teleoperation in Space
J In general, teleoperation implies continu ous perceptive and cognitive human operator involvement in the control of remote manipulators. Typically, the human control is a manual / — . one, and the basic information feedback is through visual irna~ Continuous human operator v’ involvement in teleoperation has both advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantages become quite dramatic when there...
