This paper introduces a new framework for task space telemanipulation. The TASK space grasping and MANipulation (TaskMan) concept utilizes a library of tasks based on gesture commands, which replaces the conventional mapping required between the human hand and the end effector. Task communication between the human machine interface (HMI) and the robot end effector requires two symbiotic but nonidentical state machines on the master and slave side. The task states on two sides are synchronized via a single channel communication, as opposed to multi-channel joint space or Cartesian mapped information. HAND gesture command for grasping and MANipulation (HandyMan) HMI command algorithm is proposed for the recognition of hand gestures, which incorporates a library of intuitive task gestures to be used by the teleoperator wearing a CyberGlove. The task gestures are used to drive the states of the TaskMan state machines. With the proposed concepts, this work has realized teleoperated grasp and manipulation with a 15-DoF robot hand in task space. Full 6-DoF of object manipulation was achieved with different grasp combinations, and demonstrated higher repeatability, success rate and easier operation compared to conventional joint space teleoperation methods.
