Under the circumstances of a patient’s upper limb disability, aided by a robotic arm with faulty controls, assistance is needed, using augmented reality as an auxiliary. Our system, with a headset, using an internet connection and an augmented reality device, placed on the assistant’s head, can ensure communication between the two, for both remote supervision and control. The assistant can enhance the control over the robotic arm, while having a head up display on the augmented reality glasses, based on what the patient sees. The communication is established through PC or mobile devices, connected to the internet. Having the patient’s view, and enhanced control over the robotic arm, the assistant can interact with nearby smart objects.
The multitude of sensors, transducers and data acquisition systems used in the ever-increasing domains of today’s industry, were designed and created on a purpose-based agenda. Most of these technologies were rarely used for different purposes then the ones they were meant for. This research, explores the possibility of using those technologies for the purpose of motion capture. The results of the motion capture data acquisition can further be used for other purposes, itself. Because the motion capture data isn’t calculated, but only captured, the compression algorithms may result in mathematical formulas of motion, which can be the same formulas of calculating the motion synthetically. The same way the parameters and formulas are being calculated for a robot’s movement, motion can be captured, and the key position parameters can be selected, and implemented on the movement, while not only making the movement more natural, but saves time during the programming process.
This paper studies the possibility of interfacing motion control of an infinity mirror by using viewer eye tracking and the advantages and drawbacks of such an interface.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
