Abstract :
Simulated reality environment incorporating humans and physically plausible behaving robots, providing natural interaction channels, with the option to link simulator to real perception and motion, is gaining importance for the development of cognitive, intuitive interacting and collaborating robotic systems. In the present work we introduce a head tracking system which is utilized to incorporate human ego motion in simulated environment improving immersion in the context of human-robot collaborative tasks.
