Abstract

Robotic missions in remote or unstructured environments rely on 3D vision to accurately map scenes and construct geometric models. In order to effectively utilize 3D vision data, the Interactive Computer-Enhanced Remote Viewing System (ICERVS) provides integration and modeling of 3D data for robotic systems and operators. ICERVS supports mixed-mode modeling of sensor data and geometric objects (3D computer-aided-design data) to enable interactive construction of geometric objects that match features of interest in the work environment. During ICERVS development, different approaches for mixed-mode modeling have been implemented to compare their utility and effectiveness. Results support the conclusion that multiple approaches should be included in 3D visualization and modeling systems.
