Development of an Intuitive GUI for Non-Expert Teleoperation of Humanoid Robots

Abstract: The operation of humanoid robotics is an essential field of research with many practical and competitive applications. Many of these systems, however, do not invest heavily in developing a non-expert-centered graphical user interface (GUI) for operation. The focus of this research is to develop a scalable GUI that is tailored to be simple and intuitive so non-expert operators can control the robot through a FIRA-regulated obstacle course. Using common practices from user interface development (UI) and understanding concepts described in human-robot interaction (HRI) and other related concepts, we will develop a new interface with the goal of a non-expert teleoperation system.
