    摘要: System and methods to create an immersive virtual environment using a virtual reality system that receives parameters corresponding to a real-world robot. The real-world robot may be simulated to create a virtual robot based on the received parameters. The immersive virtual environment may be transmitted to a user. The user may supply input and interact with the virtual robot. Feedback such as the current state of the virtual robot or the real-world robot may be provided to the user. The user may train the virtual robot. The real-world robot may be programmed based on the virtual robot training.

    摘要: Methods and systems for enabling human-machine collaborations include a generalizable framework that supports dynamic adaptation and reuse of robotic capability representations and human-machine collaborative behaviors. Specifically, a method of feedback-enabled user-robot collaboration includes obtaining a robot capability that models a robot's functionality for performing task actions, specializing the robot capability with an information kernel that encapsulates task-related parameters associated with the task actions, and providing an instance of the specialized robot capability as a robot capability element that controls the robot's functionality based on the task-related parameters. The method also includes obtaining, based on the robot capability element's user interaction requirements, user interaction capability elements, via which the robot capability element receives user input and provides user feedback, controlling, based on the task-related parameters, the robot's functionality to perform the task actions in collaboration with the user input; and providing the user feedback including task-related information generated by the robot capability element in association with the task actions.

    摘要: An augmented field of view imaging system includes a microscope, an image sensor system arranged to receive images of a plurality of fields of view from the microscope as the microscope is moved across an object being viewed and to provide corresponding image signals, an image processing and data storage system configured to communicate with the image sensor system to receive the image signals and to provide augmented image signals, and at least one of an image injection system or an image display system configured to communicate with the image processing and data storage system to receive the augmented image signals and display an augmented field of view image. The image processing and data storage system is configured to track the plurality of fields of view in real time and register the plurality of fields of view to calculate a mosaic image. The augmented image signals from the image processing and data storage system provide the augmented image such that a live field of view from the microscope is composited with the mosaic image.
