Abstract

This paper describes a design of remote operation interface for humanoid robot with following three functions: (1) Body DOFs control interface through 3D robot model in a virtual environment, and it has two types of online stabilizing software for maintaining the body balance. (2) Environmental recognition display interface for sensors, sound and 3D vision. (3) Voice and face recognition interface for interacting with operator and a human in front of the robot body. Then, implementation and experiments on our humanoid robot H6 are denoted.
