This research systematically compared VR controllers and SpaceMouse devices for robotic teleoperation across static and dynamic manipulation tasks, revealing VR's superior performance and user experience for dynamic motions. The study found VR significantly increased success rates and reduced task duration for dynamic tasks, while also being perceived as more usable and less demanding by users.
Key insights
- Static task evaluations are insufficient for predicting teleoperation interface performance in dynamic tasks, as distinct control characteristics are required for continuous, reactive motions.
- Pose-based VR control provides a more intuitive and effective interface for dynamic manipulation, enabling the rapid, precise, and continuous movements needed for complex robot skills.
- The teleoperation interface significantly influences both objective task performance (success rates, duration) and subjective user experience (usability, workload), favoring VR for a better overall interaction.
