Augmented reality visualization interface for biometric wireless sensor networks.

Wireless sensor networks are being intensely used in health care environments to collect biometric signals from patients. This paper presents an augmented reality visual interface based on artificial markers intended to be used by medical staff, to monitor real time information from different kind of sensors attached to the patients in care centers in a fast and flexible way. The system can be applied for any kind of information source. In this work, it has been tested with temperature and humidity sensors

An augmented reality interface for multi-robot tele-operation and control

This thesis presents a seamlessly controlled human multi-robot system comprised of ground and aerial robots of semi-autonomous nature for source localization tasks. The system combines augmented reality interfaces capabilities with human supervisor\u27s ability to control multiple robots. It used advanced path planning algorithms to ensure obstacles are avoided and that the operators are free for higher-level tasks. A sensor data fused AR view is displayed which helped the users pin point source information or help the operator with the goals of the mission. The paper studies a preliminary Human Factors evaluation of this system in which several interface conditions are tested for source detection tasks
