Shepherd: A Mobile Interface for Robot Control from a User's Viewpoint

Kazuhiro Hosoi, Masanori Sugimoto · 2006

In this paper, we propose a system called Shepherd that al-lows a user to manipulate robots such as radio controlled cars from his viewpoint. A user of Shepherd can intuitively con-trol the robots by capturing images of robots through a cam-era mounted on a mobile device, and moving it. User studies of Shepherd indicated that users could manipulate a robot in an intuitive manner. ACM Classification H5.2 [Information interfaces and pre-sentation]: Interaction styles.
