This video shows a screen capture of the 3D world a small robot operator sees with ASI's 3D vis package on an iRobot PackBot. Camcorder footage of what the robot is doing is shown simultaneously. 3D visualization lets the operator view the robot and its surroundings from any angle, rather than just the 2D views provided by on-board cameras. (Picking things up without the benefit of depth perception is quite difficult.) 3D scans are taken by a stereo vision camera mounted on the robot's arm.
