Johns Hopkins researchers interact with industrial robots (w/ video)

(Phys.org) —Researchers at Johns Hopkins Computational and Interactive Robotics Laboratory are working on an Immersive Virtual Robotics Environment (IVRE). The goal is to generate ways for users to safely interact with industrial robots without fear of the robots doing harm to humans or of exposure in dangerous environments. Kel Guerin, Johns Hopkins University, said in a video about their work that "We are developing innovative techniques for programming and interacting with industrial robots using immersive virtual reality." He called immersive virtual reality a powerful tool for robot programming, monitoring and collaboration.
