Tele-Operation in virtual environements:
Helping the operator with cognitive models of his intentions

This project is in the field of Virtual Reality for robotics. It deals with the communication between a user and a virtual environment, in tele-operation context. We study a possibility of communication at the user intention level, in order to make operations easier for him. When a tricky operation (such as object prehension) is going to be done by the operator, the system detects the operator's intention through movements, distances, or other relations. After confirmation, it starts a process aimed at performing this operation automatically. When the operation is finished, the user get back the control of the robot. This project is mainly situated in the field of cognitive modeling : perceptions, actions, intentions. On the technical level, this project leads us to design, for each functionnality of the system, the most appropriated AI techniques (symbolic or connectionist), and a collaboration between them.
