REMOTE CONTROL INPUT SYSTEM AND WRIST OPERATION DETECTION DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a remote control input system that allows an operator to intuitively perform remote control of a mobile object with a simple structure.SOLUTION: A remote control input system 10 includes a wrist operation detection device 11 that is arranged around a wrist on one side of an operator and detects an operation state of the wrist, and a computer 12 that issues an operation command to a mobile object M corresponding to the detection result. The wrist operation detection device 11 includes an operation unit 14 that is composed of a mechanism that operates in accordance with movement of the wrist on one side in a state of non-contact with an elbow on one side, and a detection unit 15 that detects the operation state of the operation unit 14. The operation unit 14 includes a grasping member 17 that is grasped by a hand on one side, and a support unit 18 that operatively supports the grasping member 17 so as to allow movement of the wrist in all directions or partial directions in a state where the grasping member 17 is grasped. The computer 12 issues the operation command to the mobile object M so as to rotate and move the mobile object M in a same direction as a rotating direction and a moving direction of the grasping member 17.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】簡単な構造で、操作者が移動体の遠隔操作を直感的に行うことを可能にする。【解決手段】遠隔操作用入力システム１０は、操作者の一方側の手首周囲に配置され、手首の動作状態を検出する手首動作検出装置１１と、その検出結果に対応して移動体Ｍへの操作指令を行うコンピュータ１２とを備えている。手首動作検出装置１１は、一方側の肘に対して非接触の状態で、一方側の手首の動きに合せて動作する機構からなる動作部１４と、動作部１４の動作状態を検出する検出部１５とを備えている。動作部１５は、一方側の手で把持される把持用部材１７と、把持用部材１７が把持された状態で手首の全方向若しくは一部方向の動きを許容するように把持用部材１７を動作可能に支持する支持ユニット１８とを備えている。コンピュータ１２では、把持用部材１７の回転方向及び移動方向と同一方向に移動体Ｍを回転、移動させるように移動体Ｍへの操作指令を行う。【選択図】 図１
