Abstract
“FiFi” is a gesture controlled transportation robot and facilitates manual transport in internal logistics. It is controlled by detection of people and their gestures with a 3D-camera. In this paper, we describe the functions and applications for FiFi in intralogistics. We introduce a new function: The user points on a line, FiFi plans a path to this line and follows it independently. After explaining our developed control mechanisms we present experiments testing the accuracy of them.
