Tele-operated systems allow humans to extend their physical capabilities and enable them to intervene in hazardous operations or where their presence is not possible. However, the operation of such systems over long periods has proved to be difficult and stressful. Consequently, means to facilitate their use are the subject of much study and experimental work. In this paper, we propose a collaborative-shared control strategy that combines the operator abilities with robotic-based tasks to render these systems more flexible and robust. In our method, the Collaborative Control component is responsible for allowing operator intervention when the robot is facing complex situations, whilst the Shared Control component provides an automatic control mechanism to assist and to monitor-correct irrational operator actions.The paper will demonstrate how collaborative and shared control strategies work together to facilitate the teleoperated control of a mobile platform in a cluttered environment. The experimental results include applications to surveillance and to search & rescue operations. In addition, a key component in the form of a hybrid obstacle avoidance module is introduced that allows the robot to be guided on a task basis by the operator at a distance.. |
