Fast Visualisation Technique for View Constrained Tele-Operation in Nuclear Industry

A machine hosted intelligent operator interface for ´man in loop´ type tele-operated systems with slave located in view constrained work scenarios is required to provide visual perception of remote scene. General virtual viewer is partially effective for large robot arms. A new modality ´See Pertinent Zone´ SPZ has been developed for showing hit prone part of robot. The new method employs virtual sensor and modeled work- space activation method for detecting approaching object surfaces and also forms synthesized view to support an autonomous SPZ .
