Mixed Reality Application in Robot Navigation and Control

Among the emerging technologies, Mixed Reality (MR) has provided the means to interact with holograms. A very distant future is now near and accessible, which allows for the replacement of classic controllers for robots and is driven by MR. Holograms involve dynamic 3D elements that are integrated into the environment, enhancing control means for the user. These elements may be visually attended to and interacted with via eye concentration or hand gestures, and they have the capability to execute a variety of activities. This emerging technology enables interactions that are otherwise unattainable in alternative settings or contexts, such as the presence of an avatar inside the program. Furthermore, it has the potential to be expanded to govern other mechatronic devices, including robots. The purpose of this work is to offer an improved and interactive method of controlling a mechatronic platform by using holograms, such that the adaptability of this technology may be shown in the context of operating real systems. Important for the authors of this paper is the broadening of the spectrum in which the application lies, thus contributing to the process followed for the development and applicability of the solution in key areas such as industry, training, and medicine.
