MULTI USERS INTERNET BASED TELEOPERATION STATION WITH AUGMENTED REALITY

Abstract

This paper describes a robot arm teleoperation station with visual and sensory feedback. This is a model based station using a 3D graphic interface that allow an operator to plan and control the robot movements with a mouse using visual and sensory information received back from the workspace through Internet. The interactions between the operator and the virtual world through the I/O data provide an immersion sensation and an update of the virtual environment by the real (position) sensory feedbacks. This works shows that it is possible with this station to execute and to supervise in near real time a robot arm.
