Mixed Reality (MR) techniques are being explored to enhance human-robot interaction (HRI) in customisable setups while also increasing engagement and motivation during therapy. However, MR systems require heavy processing and cloud computing may be explored to enable its widespread use. Nevertheless, cloud-based MR faces problems such as the effect of latency upon the system. This article introduces a cloud-based system for MR-enabled HRI in overground rehabilitation and presents a pilot study to evaluate the effects of communication issues on user experience. The observed results indicate the potential of implementing such a system in clinical settings and motivate in-depth studies in the theme.

摘要

Mixed Reality (MR) techniques are being explored to enhance human-robot interaction (HRI) in customisable setups while also increasing engagement and motivation during therapy. However, MR systems require heavy processing and cloud computing may be explored to enable its widespread use. Nevertheless, cloud-based MR faces problems such as the effect of latency upon the system. This article introduces a cloud-based system for MR-enabled HRI in overground rehabilitation and presents a pilot study to evaluate the effects of communication issues on user experience. The observed results indicate the potential of implementing such a system in clinical settings and motivate in-depth studies in the theme.
