An Augmented Reality Motion Planning Interface for Robotics

摘要

With recent advances in hardware technology, autonomous robots are increasingly present in research activities outside of robotics, performing a multitude of tasks such as image capture and sample collection. However, user interfaces for task-oriented robots have not kept pace with hardware breakthroughs. Current planning and control interfaces for robots are not intuitive and often place a large cognitive burden on those who are not highly trained in their use. Augmented reality (AR) has also seen major advances in recent years. This demonstration illustrates an initial system design for an AR user interface for path planning with robotics.
