[T-28B] A Non-immersive Robot Teleoperation Environment for Natural Communications of Gaze and Hand Motions for Dialogs

Recently, robots have been widely used in several situations for entertainment purpose. Robots used for dialogs offer an effective way to connect remote and local side. To operate a robot during dialogs, an appropriate teleoperation environment is needed. Compared with an immersive environment, the non-immersive environment shows its possibility of allowing operators to handle some multiple tasks simultaneously. However, those non-immersive systems always use an unintuitive method to control robots which could increase operators' loads and distract their focus from the main task. In this paper, we proposed a non-immersive robot teleoperation environment for natural communications of gazes and hand motions for dialogs. In the remote side, we implemented a natural behavior control interface to reduce operators' loads. In addition, the semantic transformation based on gaze and hand motions realized natural movements of a robot on the local side.
