A Study of Preference and Comfort for Users Immersed in a Telepresence Robot
Adhi Widagdo, Markku Suomalainen, Basak Sakcak +5
In this paper, we show that unwinding the rotations of a user immersed in a telepresence robot is preferred and may increase the feeling of presence or "being there". By immersive…
Augmenting Immersive Telepresence Experience with a Virtual Body
Nikunj Arora, Markku Suomalainen, Matti Pouke +5
We propose augmenting immersive telepresence by adding a virtual body, representing the user's own arm motions, as realized through a head-mounted display and a 360-degree camera.…
Unwinding Rotations Improves User Comfort with Immersive Telepresence Robots
Markku Suomalainen, Basak Sakcak, Adhi Widagdo +5
We propose unwinding the rotations experienced by the user of an immersive telepresence robot to improve comfort and reduce VR sickness of the user. By immersive telepresence we re…
Analysis of User Preferences for Robot Motions in Immersive Telepresence
Katherine J. Mimnaugh, Markku Suomalainen, Israel Becerra +3
This paper considers how the motions of a telepresence robot moving autonomously affect a person immersed in the robot through a head-mounted display. In particular, we explore the…
Defining Preferred and Natural Robot Motions in Immersive Telepresence from a First-Person Perspective
Katherine J. Mimnaugh, Markku Suomalainen, Israel Becerra +3
This paper presents some early work and future plans regarding how the autonomous motions of a telepresence robot affect a person embodied in the robot through a head-mounted displ…
Compliant Manipulation of Free-Floating Objects
Shikha Sharma, Markku Suomalainen, Ville Kyrki
Compliant motions allow alignment of workpieces using naturally occurring interaction forces. However, free-floating objects do not have a fixed base to absorb the reaction forces…
