Sketch-MoMa: Teleoperation for Mobile Manipulator via Interpretation of Hand-Drawn Sketches

Sketch-MoMa: Teleoperation for Mobile Manipulator via Interpretation of Hand-Drawn Sketches

Summary

This research paper introduces Sketch-MoMa, a teleoperation system that interprets hand-drawn sketches superimposed on observation images to control mobile manipulators. By leveraging Vision-Language Models (VLMs), the system infers drawn shapes and low-level tasks, enabling precise motion planning for operations like grasping and rotation. The approach is validated with seven tasks and five sketch shapes, showing competitive usability compared to existing 2D interfaces in a user study involving fourteen participants.

Editorial context

The authors validate Sketch-MoMa using state-of-the-art Vision-Language Models across seven tasks and five sketch shapes, demonstrating competitive usability in a user experiment with fourteen participants.

In this paper, we propose Sketch-MoMa, a teleoperation system using the user-given hand-drawn sketches as instructions to control a robot.
