Leaning-Based Control of an Immersive-Telepresence Robot
Joona Halkola, Markku Suomalainen, Basak Sakcak +5
In this paper, we present an implementation of a leaning-based control of a differential drive telepresence robot and a user study in simulation, with the goal of bringing the same…
The Body Scaling Effect and Its Impact on Physics Plausibility
Matti Pouke, Evan G. Center, Alexis P. Chambers +3
In this study we investigated the effect of body ownership illusion-based body scaling on physics plausibility in Virtual Reality (VR). Our interest was in examining whether body o…
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…
HI-DWA: Human-Influenced Dynamic Window Approach for Shared Control of a Telepresence Robot
Juho Kalliokoski, Basak Sakcak, Markku Suomalainen +4
This paper considers the problem of enabling the user to modify the path of a telepresence robot. The robot is capable of autonomously navigating to a goal predefined by the user,…
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…
