Human Robot Interaction Using Diver Hand Signals

摘要

Current methods for human robot interaction in the underwater domain seem antiquated in comparison to their terrestrial counterparts. Visual tags and custom built wired remotes are commonplace underwater, but such approaches have numerous drawbacks. Here we describe a method for human robot interaction underwater that borrows from the long standing history of diver communication using hand signals; a three stage approach for diver-robot communication using a series of neural networks.
