Shared-Control Teleoperation of Omnidirectional Aerial Robots for Continuous Valve Rotation

Key points

• Although there have been advancements in robotic autonomy, human operation remains essential in complex aerial environments.1
• Previously, we proposed an aerial teleoperation system that brings the rotational flexibility of human hands into the unbounded aerial workspace, which was evaluated through a vertically mounted valve-turning task.1
• In this work, we propose an approach to initiate continuous rotation when the forearm angle exceeds a threshold.1
• This switch of control authority exemplifies the concept shared control from human-robot interaction, marking a further step in aerial teleoperation.1
