Abstract
Fast development of sensing devices able to collect data about human actions creates new possibilities for building robot teleooperation interfaces. The devices for capturing gestures, movements or even thoughts can replace joysticks and buttons and simplify expressing decisions. In this paper a series of experiments is presented which involve testing four different interfaces in the task of controlling a mobile robot with manipulator. Results of the experiments, which involved ten volunteers, show that use of modern sensing devices can improve efficiency and intuitiveness of teleoperation.
