New visual system of remote control type humanoid robot

We are developing a new visual system, which we call a "Remote stereovision", with the objective of loading it on a remote control type robot If we can convey stereoscopic vision observed by a remote control robot to an operator via the Internet and at the same time communicate information on the observation state from the operator side to the robot through the Internet and if we can adjust the convergence angle of the stereo camera installed on the robot automatically based on this information, we will be able to dramatically improve the operator's ability to observe stereoscopic images. Concretely speaking, we developed the system to adjust the direction of the camera in order to automatically decrease the parallax against the object as much as possible. Furthermore, we created a new concept called the object point as opposed to the cross point of 3D camera, setting the object point on the desired object.
