    摘要: The invention relates to a context-sensitive control system, comprising a work machine controllable by remote control, a remote control unit with an operator interface which enables an operator walking next to the work machine to control the work machine via operator commands, a projection means enabling projection of information for the operator; a communicator configured to receive context-sensitive information in response to signal data from transducers and sensors of the work machine and to communicate the information to the projection means configured to project context-sensitive information onto a projection surface in such a way that the information becomes visually visible to the operator.

    摘要: A remote-controlled demolition robot includes a control unit, an undercarriage with propulsion means, an upper carriage with a maneuverable arm means and a remote control unit having a first and second control lever and an operating mode control switch to switch between alternative operating modes, the remote control unit to give commands via the operating mode control switch to control the robot in alternative operating modes by the control levers. The operating mode selector switch can form a primary operating mode control switch and one control lever can have a secondary operating mode control switch accessible for activation without releasing a grip on the control lever and, when activated, momentarily switches the control unit from the operating mode dedicated by the primary operating mode selector switch to an alternative momentary operating mode, the switching being active as long as the secondary operating mode control switch is activated.

    摘要: A system for presenting information to a human to avoid dangers such as collisions, without hindering the respective movement of the human and an autonomous machine. The human-machine cooperative control system manages each movable region so that the human and the autonomous machine do not collide. The system comprises a moving body position measurement unit comprising at least sensor for measuring the position of moving bodies, including a human and a machine; a moving body motion prediction unit for predicting future motion of a subject moving body on the basis of a moving body position; an exclusive management unit for planning a movable region for each moving body on the basis of a planned route for the unmanned machine and a moving body predicted motion obtained from the moving body motion prediction unit; and an information presentation unit for presenting information about the movable region for the human.
