Shadow robot: manipulation of a robot model in augmented reality
Halenár, Timotej ; Bambušek, Daniel (oponent) ; Materna, Zdeněk (vedoucí práce)
This bachelor thesis is concerned with the manipulation of a robot model in augmented reality, using a tablet device. It extends user interaction of the existing application for robot programming -- AREditor. When programming in AREditor, the user needs to set robot poses in order to define points in space, which the robot needs to reach during program execution. The existing solution of manually positioning the robot in AREditor only allows incremental stepping of the physical robot, which is, in the majority of use cases insufficient. The main goal is to design and implement an interaction scheme, through which the user can easily position a robot model, displayed on-screen over the real robot. The user first sets the pose of the model and then commands the physical robot to copy the chosen pose. The robot arm tracks the current position of a 3D gizmo, which the user can drag in space by moving the tablet, and its movement can be constrained to one of the axes or planes. The solution also offers movement sensitivity controls, a custom coordinate system, and a separate control for gizmo to camera distance. The proposed workflow streamlines the process of setting the pose of a robot and enables users to speed up the program creation.
