Improved Teleoperation of an Industrial Robot Arm System Using Leap Motion and MYO Armband

摘要

Teleoperated robot systems can support humans to accomplish their works in lots of applications. However, the performance of teleoperation is easily influenced by human operator's motor function. In order to reduce the misoperation caused by human operator's unintentional behavior, in this paper, an improved teleoperation scheme combined with Leap Motion and MYO armband is proposed to apply in teleoperating an industrial robot arm. By using the proposed method, we can achieve interaction between human operator and industrial robot arm in real-time. Besides, the proposed method can prevent the misoperation caused by unexpected arm shaking. Experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method for a teleoperated robot system.
