As robotics advance, the future could certainly involve humans and automated elements working together as a team. The question then becomes, how do you design such an interaction? A team of researchers from Purdue University attempt to provide a solution with their GhostAR system. The setup records human movements for playback later in augmented reality, while a robotic partner is programmed to work around a “ghost” avatar. This enables a user to plan out how to collaborate with the robot and work out kinks before actually performing a task. GhostAR's hardware includes an Oculus Rift headset and IR LED tracking, along with actual robots used in development. Simulation hardware consists of a six-axis Tinkerkit Braccio robot, as well as an Arduino-controlled omni-wheel base that can mount either a robot an arm or a camera as needed. More information on the project can be found in the team's research paper. With GhostX, whatever plan a user makes with the ghost form of the robot while wearing an augmented reality head mount is communicated to the real robot through a cloud connection – allowing both the user and robot to know what the other is doing as they perform a task.The system also allows the user plan a task directly in time and space and without any programming knowledge.First, the user acts out the human part of the task to be completed with a robot. The system then captures the human’s behavior and displays it to the user as an avatar ghost, representing the user’s presence in time and space.Using the human ghost as a time-space reference, the user programs the robot via its own ghost to match up with the human’s role. The user and robot then perform the task as their ghosts did.
FAQs
Is this display multitouch-enabled?
Yes, the display supports up to 5 simultaneous touch points.
How do I connect the GIGA Display Shield to the GIGA R1 WiFi?
The GIGA Display Shield connects via the middle headers (J5 and J6) on the GIGA R1 WiFi. Attach the shield from the bottom, leaving the top side of the GIGA R1 WiFi available for additional shields.
Will I still have access to all pins when the display is attached?
Yes, you will retain access to all pins on the top side of the board (54 pins) even when the display is connected.
Does the shield require an external power supply?
No, the GIGA Display Shield does not require an external power supply. It is powered directly through the connection.
Which cameras are compatible with the shield?
The GIGA Display Shield is fully compatible with 20-pin DVP cameras from Arducam, such as the OV7675. For more information, visit the Arducam catalog of compatible cameras.
In which direction is the camera connector oriented?
The camera connector pinout is configured to ensure that compatible Arducam models face the same direction as the screen, resembling a selfie mode for a seamless and user-friendly experience.
