Attentive Workbench - An Intelligent Production Cell Helping HumanWorkers - 3rd Report: User Interface Based on Pointing Gesture

摘要

We have proposed "attentive workbench (AWB)," an assembly cell that supports the production activities of human workers. Attentive Workbench is composed of an augmented desk interface and self-moving trays with the Sawyer planar motors. In this paper, based on pointing gesture, an interface between workers and AWB is developed. Integrating the present interface and self-moving trays, an assembly support is demonstrated.
