Graphical User Interface for Controlling Upper Limb Robotic Arms in Electronic Devices

Abstract

1. Name of the product in this design: Graphical User Interface for Controlling Upper Limb Robotic Arms for Electronic Devices. 2. Intended use of this design: for use in an electronic device. 3. The key design features of this product are its graphical user interface. 4. The image or photograph that best illustrates the design's key features: the front view. 5. Purpose of the graphical user interface: It is used to send the required instructions to the upper limb robotic arm, and at the same time, it can monitor the status of the robotic arm in real time. 6. Human-computer interaction method of graphical user interface: animation area in the upper left corner: displays the current running status of the robotic arm, including three states: planning mode, active mode, and stopped, so that users can intuitively know the current status of the equipment. Real-time curve area: When the robotic arm is moving, it will read the real-time angles of the eight joints and draw them on the interface. You can hover the mouse cursor over the position to display the values. The right side will display the real-time values ​​of the eight angles and the corresponding angle value of the position where the cursor is hovering. Secondly, the real-time data reception can be stopped by using the pause drawing button, and all cached historical data can be viewed by dragging the mouse. Finally, you can click the save button to save the cached data locally and clear the cache area. Planning Instruction Area: First, you can switch the running mode to planning mode, which also includes a stop button. Single-step planning and multi-step planning are disabled when the running state is not in planning mode. When planning mode is enabled, for single-step planning, you can drag the slider or enter the required values ​​on the keyboard to set the angles of the eight joints, and then use confirmation to control the robotic arm to move to the corresponding angle; for multi-step planning, you can select seven different planning modes through the drop-down box, and after confirmation, the robotic arm will move according to the predetermined trajectory. Active Options Area: Click the button to switch to active mode. After switching, you can click the four buttons below to activate different functions of the shoulder, wrist, and elbow joints respectively. After activation, users can freely control the rotation of these joints. The save button can save the previously sent commands to the local machine and clear the previous cache. Log display area: A four-column table displays the joint data files saved locally and the command files sent, and you can open and view the corresponding files by double-clicking. At the bottom, the data styles sent after clicking different buttons on the interface and the data returned by the server are displayed.
