Human-Machine Driving Interface for Omnidirectional Robots and Wheelchairs
摘要
This paper presents the development of a drive-interface for omnidirectional motorized systems like carts, mobile robots, lifting devices and electric powered wheelchairs. The goal of this research is to design an intuitive and reliable drive interface that is safe to use and cost-effective. This paper presents the concept and functional design of the sensorized handlebar. Moreover, the first prototype of the device is presented and tested with a preliminary experimental setup.
