Abstract :
The problem of visual telepresence and augmented reality control of reconnaissance mobile robots is described. ARGOS (advanced robotic graphical operation system) for teleoperation of various mobile robots through sensory supported visual telepresence is presented. Two robots - Orpheus and Hermes, and one embedded system Orpheus EB - made on Department of Control and Instrumentation (DCI) are described as examples of systems with different features and capabilities that may be controlled through ARGOS. Data fusion of CCD color camera data, thermovision data and 3D proximity data through extended 3D evidence grids is described.
