Image based operation for human-robot interaction

Abstract

A prototype system for human-robot interaction based on the mental image of the task is described. The mental image is a visual model that reflects a real-world situation, such as object placement in the work space, and simulates the effects of robot action in this situation. A human operator estimates and plans the task using this mental image. The system architecture used to produce the mental image for the operator is presented.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
