Demo of VJ-Voicebot

摘要

We explore the use of the Vocal Joystick (VJ) for robotic limb control using a small-scale robotic arm. The purpose of this research is to allow individuals with mobile disabilities to obtain greater independence by continuously controlling a robotic arm with their voice. The VJ-Voicebot relies only on continuous and discrete non-verbal vocal sounds to interact with objects in its environment. The demonstration will allow users to experience real-time control of a 5 degrees-of-freedom (DOF) robotic arm using sounds produced from their own vocal system.
