Study of Design and Control of Remote Manipulators. Part 4 Experiments in Video Camera Positioning with Regard to Remote Manipulation

摘要

The results are presented of a study involving closed circuit television as the means of providing the necessary task-to-operator feedback for efficient performance of the remote manipulation system. Experiments were performed to determine the remote video configuration that will result in the best overall system. Two categories of tests were conducted which include: those which involved remote control position (rate) of just the video system, and those in which closed circuit TV was used along with manipulation of the objects themselves.
