Skill Improvement by the Predictive Motion Display

在我们之前的工作中，我们为自由飞行的空间机器人提出了一种新的操作员支持技术--预测运动显示(PredictiveMotion Display，PMD)。PMD通过显示自由飞行空间机器人的未来位置，极大地提高了人类的操作技能。换句话说，操作员通过观察PMD来改变他自己的控制输入。在本研究中，我们将PMD应用于其他不稳定的任务，如倒立摆、驾驶汽车和步行任务。不幸的是，PMD对于这些任务并不起作用，但我们找到了一种新的方法来提高倒立摆任务的技能。通过对多个受试者的动态仿真，验证了该方法的有效性。此外，我们还开发了一个新的直观的操作界面，用于驾驶汽车任务。

In our previous work, we proposed a novel operator support technique named “PredictiveMotion Display, PMD" for a free-flying space robot. The PMD dramatically improveshuman operational skill by showing future position of the free-flying space robot. In otherwords, the operator changes his own control input by watching the PMD. In this research,we apply the PMD to other unstable tasks like inverted pendulum, driving car andropewalking task. Unfortunately, the PMD didn't work well for these tasks, but we have found a new method to improve skill for the inverted pendulum task. Its effectiveness isconfirmed through the dynamic simulation with several subjects. In addition, we have alsodeveloped a new intuitive operational interface for driving car task.
