For nuclear facility decommissioning and waste cleanup, it is necessary to deploy simple and robust robots in remote sites performing precise and dexterous manipulation under teleoperation. To meet the challenge, this paper presents a new remote operation method based on augmented reality for intuitive and efficient teleoperation. The enhanced teleoperation system incorporates three technology components - 3D sensing and reconstruction, augmented reality, and teleoperation. The 3D reconstruction technology utilizes 3D cameras and constructs a 3D geometric model of the environment. Compared to the state-of-the- art technology, the presented 3D reconstruction has greater spatial precision and dynamic object tracking capability, which enhances the precision of manipulation tasks in a dynamic environment. The augmented reality technology entails generation of virtual surfaces of various geometries and dynamic characteristics, as well as consistent perceptual overlay in camera, robot and operator hand control spaces. Teleoperation is demonstrated with a dual-arm robot system operated under Robot Operating System (ROS). (authors)
