چکیده

In this paper we describe a stereo vision system that can recognize natural gestures and an intelligent robot control architecture that can interpret these gestures in the context of a task The intelligent control archi tecture consists of three layers The top layer delib erates via a state based hierarchical non linear plan ner The bottom layer consists of a suite of reactive skills that can be con gured into synchronous state machines by the middle layer The middle layer im plemented in the RAPs system serves to mediate be tween the long range deliberation of the top layer and the continuous activity of the bottom layer It is in the middle layer that we are investigating context focused deictic gesturing for human robot interaction When directed in the context of di erent RAPs human ges tures can be interpreted by the system di erently for di erent tasks This work shows that a our archi tecture designed to support perception and action can also support other forms of communication and b task contexts can act as resources for communica tion by simplifying the interpretation of communica tive acts

A Behavior based Approach to Active Stereo Vision for Mobile Robots

This paper describes an active stereo vision system that uses a behavior based approach to control gaze The system concentrates its computational resources on cubic volumes of space called proximity spaces Each proximity space is controlled by a set of behaviors that combine to determine its location in the next processing frame Multiple proximity spaces can be chained together using kinematic ...

Workspace Boundary Avoidance in Robot Teaching by Demonstration Using Fuzzy Impedance Control

The present paper investigates an intuitive way of robot path planning, called robot teaching by demonstration. In this method, an operator holds the robot end-effector and moves it through a number of positions and orientations in order to teach it a desired task. The presented control architecture applies impedance control in such a way that the end-effector follows the operator’s hand with d...

Recognizing and inter reting gestures on a obile robot

Gesture recognition is an important skill for robots that work closely with humans. Gestures help to clarify spoken commands and are a compact means of relaying geometric information. We have developed a real-time, three-dimensional gesture recognition sy,stern that resides on-board a mobile robot. Using a coarse three-dimensional model of a human to guide stereo measurements of body parts, the...

Human Computer Interaction Using Vision-Based Hand Gesture Recognition

With the rapid emergence of 3D applications and virtual environments in computer systems; the need for a new type of interaction device arises. This is because the traditional devices such as mouse, keyboard, and joystick become inefficient and cumbersome within these virtual environments. In other words, evolution of user interfaces shapes the change in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). In...
