Abstract

Sensor fusion is commonly used to reduce uncertainty in localization, obstacle detection, and world modeling. However, sensor fusion can also be used to improve teleoperation. In particular, we can use sensor fusion to create user interfaces which efficiently convey information, facilitate understanding of remote environments and improve situational awareness. We do this by selecting complementary sensors, combining information appropriately and designing effective representations. In this paper, we discuss sensor fusion for teleoperation, describe a vehicle teleoperation interface, and present our results.
