Exploiting potential energy storage for cyclic manipulation: A Human-Centered Approach to Robot Gesture Based Communication within Collaborative Working Processes
2011
The increasing ability of industrial robots to perform
complex tasks in collaboration with humans requires more
capable ways of communication and interaction. Traditional
systems use separate interfaces such as touchscreens or control
panels in order to operate the robot, or to communicate its
state and prospective actions to the user. Transferring human
communication, such as gestures to technical non-humanoid
robots, creates various opportunities for more intuitive humanrobot-
interaction. Interaction shall no longer require a separate
interface such as a control panel. Instead, it should
take place directly between human and robot. To explore
intuitive interaction, we identified gestures that are relevant
for co-working tasks from human observations. Based on a
decomposition approach we transferred them to robotic systems
of increasing abstraction and experimentally evaluated how well
these gestures are recognized by humans. We created a humanrobot
interaction use-case in order to perform the task of
handling dangerous liquid. Results indicate that several gestures
are well perceived when displayed with context information
regarding the task.
