Induced virtual environment for control of a manipulator designed for working with radioactive materials

摘要

This article discusses the control issues of a robotic arm for a hot cell based on the induced virtual reality methodology. A human-machine interface based on the virtual reality is presented, comprising a set of interactive features, designed to construct trajectories, along which the end effector of the arm should move. The prospects of computer vision are further considered as means that update the virtual environment state. An experiment to compare two approaches designed to control the robotic arm in virtual environment was carried out.
