Ship construction is a major industry worldwide, and many tasks have been automated. One task that is still solely carried out manually is welding of studs. This paper presents a semi-autonomous approach to robotic stud the welding with focus on the HRI (Human-Robot Interaction). The welding itself is carried out autonomously by an autonomous industrial mobile manipulator (AIMM). An intuitive interface is proposed for the AIMM to ensure safe and correct operation. The interface allows non-expert operators to program, verify, and reprogram the robot's task on the manufacturing site. Task specific information is projected directly into object space as augmented reality using a projector mounted on the robot endeffector. Specifically, stud positions are shown on the ship wall before welding is initiated, and positions can be added, deleted, and moved using an IMU as pointing device.The contribution of this paper is an intuitive interface for on-site programming of stud welding robots; implemented in a skill-based task programming architecture. The system is designed and implemented, and proof-of-concept tests are presented.

“…However, those studies did not focus on coordination among multiple robots. There are also many "smart home" projects, such as MIT's House_N [8], Smart house [18], "Ambient Intelligence" [3], "Living tomorrow" [16], and Roadie [15]. But those projects emphasize sensor technology or focus on the interface for controlling and debugging sets of appliances rather than on a tool for organizing multiple physical tasks to be executed by home robots.…”

As various home robots come into homes, the need for efficient robot task management tools is arising. Current tools are designed for controlling individual robots independently, so they are not ideally suitable for assigning coordinated action among multiple robots. To address this problem, we developed a management tool for home robots with a graphical editing interface. The user assigns instructions by selecting a tool from a toolbox and sketching on a bird's-eye view of the environment. Layering supports the management of multiple tasks in the same room. Layered graphical representation gives a quick overview of and access to rich information tied to the physical environment. This paper describes the prototype system and reports on our evaluation of the system.

“…Perzanowski et al provided multimodal interface in which the user can specify the target location by tapping a map on a PDA screen [4]. Lundberg et al also proposed a PDA interface for a robot, where the user can specify the area for the robot to explore [5]. In this study, we also follow the approach to combine user control and robot autonomy.…”

Abstract.A laser pointer can be a powerful tool for robot control. However, in the past, their use in the field of robotics has been limited to simple target designation, without exploring their potential as versatile input devices. This paper proposes to create a laser pointer-based user interface for giving various instructions to a robot by applying stroke gesture recognition to the laser's trajectory. Through this interface, the user can draw stroke gestures using a laser pointer to specify target objects and commands for the robot to execute accordingly. This system, which includes lasso and dwelling gestures for object selection, stroke gestures for robot operation, and push-button commands for movement cancellation, has been refined from its prototype form through several user-study evaluations. Our results suggest that laser pointers can be effective not only for target designation but also for specifying command and target location for a robot to perform.
