“…VAM hasn't been applied widely in entertainment robotics: we identified only one paper in this domain. The robot in this paper [89] is not a traditional entertainment robot of the sort mentioned above but is instead a multipurpose wearable (wrist-worn) robot that has many different functionalities invoked by AR system. It consists of six interlinked servomotors fastened together using plastic brackets.…”

Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality for Human-Robot Interaction (VAM-HRI) has been gaining considerable attention in HRI research in recent years. However, the HRI community lacks a set of shared terminology and framework for characterizing aspects of mixed reality interfaces, presenting serious problems for future research. Therefore, it is important to have a common set of terms and concepts that can be used to precisely describe and organize the diverse array of work being done within the field. In this paper, we present a novel taxonomic framework for different types of VAM-HRI interfaces, composed of four main categories of virtual design elements (VDEs). We present and justify our taxonomy and explain how its elements have been developed over the last 30 years as well as the current directions VAM-HRI is headed in the coming decade. CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → Virtual reality; Mixed / augmented reality; User interface design; • Computer systems organization → External interfaces for robotics.

“…Form Factor: This category includes the types of robots that have been investigated in the literature. The form factor of robots include: robotic arms [341,354], drones [58,171], mobile robots [197,468], humanoid robots [254,439], vehicles [300,320], actuated objects [159,443], the combination of multiple form factors [169], and other types such as fabrication machines [304,476].…”

“…-Information Panels: Information panels show the robot's internal or external status as floating windows [443] with either textual or visual representations. Textual information can be effective to present precise information such as the current altitude of the drone [15] or the measured length [96].…”

“…The camera feed can be also combined with the real-time 3D reconstruction [332]. In contrast, monitor or display are also used to display spatially registered content in the surrounding environment [382] or on top of the robot [443] Design-2. Spatial References and Visualizations: Spatial references and visualizations are a technique used to overlay data spatially.…”

“…Such a framework can accelerate design and 3D printing by allowing a user to interact with the printed object and make changes almost simultaneously. Urbani et al [110] introduced an AR-based inter-device communication framework to monitor and adjust operational parameters (e.g., status, shape, and position) of a multipurpose wrist wearable robot. According to Williams et al [111], the first workshop on "Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality for Human-Robot Interactions (VAM-HRI)" brought together works where AR, VR, and MR were integrated with different robotic systems.…”

Augmented Reality for Robotics: A Review

2020

Augmented reality (AR) is used to enhance the perception of the real world by integrating virtual objects to an image sequence acquired from various camera technologies. Numerous AR applications in robotics have been developed in recent years. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of AR research in robotics during the five year period from 2015 to 2019. We classified these works in terms of application areas into four categories: (1) Medical robotics: Robot-Assisted surgery (RAS), prosthetics, rehabilitation, and training systems; (2) Motion planning and control: trajectory generation, robot programming, simulation, and manipulation; (3) Human-robot interaction (HRI): teleoperation, collaborative interfaces, wearable robots, haptic interfaces, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), and gaming; (4) Multi-agent systems: use of visual feedback to remotely control drones, robot swarms, and robots with shared workspace. Recent developments in AR technology are discussed followed by the challenges met in AR due to issues of camera localization, environment mapping, and registration. We explore AR applications in terms of how AR was integrated and which improvements it introduced to corresponding fields of robotics. In addition, we summarize the major limitations of the presented applications in each category. Finally, we conclude our review with future directions of AR research in robotics. The survey covers over 100 research works published over the last five years.
