Abstract

This research focuses on the remote collaboration in which a local worker works with real objects by a remote instructor. In this research area, there are some systems which consist of the ProCam system consisting of a camera and a projector at the work environment and the tabletop system consisting of a display, a depth sensor and a camera at remote instructor environment. As the function enhancement, the system using the scaling method of the embodiment exists. The system makes it possible for instructor to instruct smoothly even to small objects and has an effect on task completion time in the user study of putting smaller block clusters than the size of fingers. We first analyzed the movie of previous experiment again, and then find out the problems the previous work could not solve, and proposed their solution.
