The multimodal edge of human aerobotic interaction

This paper presents the idea of a multimodal human aerobotic interaction. An overview of the aerobotic system and its application is given. The joystick-based controller interface and its limitations is discussed. Two techniques are suggested as emerging alternatives to the joystick-based controller interface used in human aerobotic interaction. The first technique is a multimodal combination of speech, gaze, gesture, and other non-verbal cues already used in regular human-humaninteraction. The second is telepathic interaction via brain computer interfaces. The potential limitations of these alternatives is highlighted, and the considerations for further works are presented
