Robot teleoperation using Kinect

This is the video accompanying the paper entitled "Manipulator control based on the dual quaternion framework for intuitive teleoperation using Kinect" (LARS/SBR 2012). In the paper, Kinect is used to enable robot teleoperation. Since only hand position measurements are available, the operator's left hand is used to set the robot operation mode. Current works involve integrating wireless motion sensors to enable obtaining hand orientation as well.
