Visualization of the surrounding environment and operational part in a 3DCG model for the teleoperation of construction machines

Abstract

During the teleoperation of construction machines and robots, it is essential that the surrounding environment, operational part, and work object are visually presented to the operator. In this paper, we present a novel image representation method that combines these three aspects from an arbitrary point of view using multiple cameras. The image generated by the proposed method is compared to those produced by a conventional method.
