Abstract
Force feedback is a powerful sensory cue that can provide a user, remotely teleoperating a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aerial robotic vehicle, with an enhanced perception of the robot motion and interaction with the local environment. The accepted framework for mobile vehicle teleoperation, inspired by decades of research into manipulator teleoperation, maps joystick displacements to vehicle velocity set points and reflects interactive forces from the vehicle to the human operator. This paper proposes a novel admittance configured haptic interface where the force input from the user is used as a velocity set point and the joystick position is servo-controlled to reflect the vehicle velocity. This paper provides a comparative study, both analytic and experimental, of the two interfaces to investigate the performance and perceptual differences in the context of teleoperation of a VTOL aerial robot.
