Collaborative Teleoperation via the Internet
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a system that allows a distributed group of users to simultaneously teleoperate an industrial robot arm via the Internet. A java applet at each client streams mouse motion vectors from up to 30 users; a server aggregates these inputs to produce a single control stream for the robot. Users receive visual feedback from a digital camera mounted above the robot arm. To our knowledge, this is the first collaboratively controlled robot on the Internet.

A New Interface for Collaborative Teleoperation
This paper presents a conceptual architecture and a new interface developed for collaborative teleoperation via Internet. This interface is based on a MAS (Multi-Agent System) devoted to collaboration. The MAS formalism is based on a new approach combining astutely two research area: MAS and CSCW (Computer Supported Collaborative Work). In the first area, a formal model of the MAS (Ferber appro...
متن کاملCollaborative Teleoperation Using Networked Spatial Dynamic Voting
We describe a networked teleoperation system that allows groups of participants to collaboratively explore live remote environments. Participants collaborate using a spatial dynamic voting (SDV) interface that allows them to vote on a sequence of images via a network such as the Internet. The SDV interface runs on each client computer and communicates with a central server that collects, displa...
متن کاملA Collaborative Multi-Agent Framework for Internet-Based Teleoperation Systems
This paper presents a conceptual model of an agent (called Collaborator Agent) intended to design collaborative software architectures based on multi-agent systems. The authors’ model combines astutely two research areas: Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) and Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW). The particularity of their approach is the division of the collaborative process into three spaces ac...
متن کاملTeleoperation of collaborative mobile robots with force feedback over internet
A teleoperation system has been developed that enables two human operators to safely control two collaborative mobile robots in unknown and dynamic environments from any two PCs connected to the Internet by installing developed client program on them and by using simple force feedback joysticks. On the graphical user interfaces, the operators receive images forwarded by the cameras mounted on t...
متن کاملCollaborative Teleoperation Design Requirements and Development Issues
Collaboration is the creation of shared understanding that facilitates augmentative, integrative and debative capabilities, and it is a fundamental part of an effective decision making and problem solving in complex environment. This paper introduces a collaborative teleoperation concept to deal with task complexity, high cost, need to enhance quality and safety, and the distribution of resourc...
متن کاملQos Based Control of Teleoperation via Internet
Abstract: This paper presents an QoS (quality of service) based control system of teleoperation via the Internet. Quality of service on the Internet refers to a set of quality requirements on the performance of the data transmission necessary to achieve the required functionality of an application. The quality of data transmission via the Internet is measured or reflected by a set of QoS parame...
