A Mirror World-Based Robot Control System

This paper describes an approach to establish bidirectional interactions between robots in the physical and virtual worlds, enabling changes that occur to a physical robot to be automatically reflected by its virtual counterpart, and vice versa. To explore this mirror world concept, a general approach is developed to trigger events that propagate changes between physical and virtual robot counterparts. The accuracy and usability of this approach are then evaluated by constructing a physical robot, creating a virtual model of this robot in Unity, and gathering results from test scenarios.
