WiMi Developed an HMD-based Control System for Humanoid Robots Controlled by BCI

Leave a comment

BEIJING, July 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WIMI) (“WiMi” or the “Company”), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality (“AR”) Technology provider, today announced its development of a humanoid robot control system based on a head-mounted display (HMD) controlled by a brain-computer interface (BCI). This system via steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) and allows interaction with the environment and humans. The technology provides real-time feedback through the robot’s embedded camera, which integrates stimulus feedback into the HMD display.

WiMi’s researchers took control of the robot and tested its performance by using this new interaction in an experiment. Testers were asked to navigate the robot to a specific location to perform a task. This test was based on visual SLAM feedback, which provides navigation instructions through images of the environment captured by a camera.

Steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) are used as control signals, and the user’s EEG signals are captured by an EEG signal acquisition device, and real-time feedback from the robot is displayed using a head-mounted display. For navigation instructions, the researchers embedded an embedded camera in the robot and combined its real-time feedback with the SSVEP signals on the head-mounted display to form a form of interaction. The researchers used a visual SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) algorithm to implement the navigation instructions.

The control system of the head-mounted display BCI consists of several components: signal acquisition device, head-mounted display, humanoid robot, embedded camera, control algorithm, etc. The steps and results of WiMi’s BCI control system implementation are as follows:

EEG signal acquisition and processing:

The WiMi researchers first used a set of EEG signal interaction platforms for capturing the user’s EEG signals and processing those signals. The platform consists of a multi-channel amplifier, electrode caps, and data acquisition software to capture and store the user’s EEG signals in real-time. In processing the EEG signals, an efficient method is used, which is the extraction of SSVEP by frequency analysis of the signals. This method presents light flashes of a specific frequency to the user, and the user’s EEG signal will resonate at this frequency, thus enabling the extraction of control signals.

The researchers used an EEG signal acquisition device to capture the user’s EEG signals, a head-mounted display to show real-time feedback from the robot, and an embedded camera to provide navigation instructions. The control algorithm uses a visual SLAM algorithm to implement the navigation instructions, which models the environment and implements the navigation instructions from images of the environment captured by the robot’s camera.

Head-mounted display applications:

To provide feedback on the control signals, the researchers used a head-mounted display, which shows real-time images and states displayed through a built-in monitor. The head-mounted display utilizes high-resolution display technology to provide a more realistic experience of the virtual environment.

In addition, to better provide feedback on control signals, the researchers combined the display with the robot’s built-in camera. With the robot’s camera capturing images of the environment and displaying them on the head-mounted display, users can visualize the robot’s state and environmental information more intuitively. Specifically, the user is required to gaze at a specific frequency of light stimuli on the head-mounted display, which causes the user’s brain to emit a specific SSVEP signal. Once the signal is captured and processed, a control algorithm can determine the user’s intent based on the frequency and amplitude of the signal, such as moving the robot to turn left or right. The embedded camera captures the viewpoint of the robot in real-time, providing an image of the environment as well as feedback on the current position of the robot.

Navigation implementation:

Using the SLAM algorithm, an image of the robot’s environment is captured by the robot’s built-in camera and converted into a model of the robot’s environment. The algorithm is also able to estimate the robot’s position and provide navigation instructions to the user. The user can control the direction of the robot’s movement through SSVEP signals, while the head-mounted display shows the robot’s status and environmental information to provide more intuitive feedback to the user.

In addition, the researchers conducted an experimental evaluation of the control system to assess its performance in terms of control accuracy and interaction experience. The experimental results show that the control system can provide precise control signals as well as an immersive interactive experience, providing users with a novel way to control their robots.

Experimental evaluation:

To evaluate the performance of the system, the researchers conducted a series of experiments. The experiments included a user using the system for a robot navigation task and a control experiment using a traditional remote control for the task. The results of the experiments showed that users were able to perform navigation tasks more accurately and get better interaction when using the system.

The researchers conducted experiments to evaluate the control system, including performance in terms of control accuracy and interaction experience. In the experiment, participants were required to control the robot to walk to a specific location to complete a task in a simulated environment. The experimental results show that the control system can provide precise control signals with an average control accuracy of 98.1%. Meanwhile, users evaluated the system as a very good interaction experience, and considered it a very natural and intuitive way of interaction.

WiMi’s head-mounted display (HMD) for robot control via a brain-computer interface (BCI) demonstrates a new way of interaction, providing a more natural and intuitive way of control. Experimental results show that the control system can provide precise control signals. This control method has the potential to be used in many scenarios that require precise control, such as medical, educational, and entertainment fields. Subsequently, the control system can be combined with other sensor technologies, such as voice and gesture, to provide more diverse control. This navigation-assisted scheme provides users with a novel interaction method, which can improve the robot’s operation efficiency and interaction experience.

“With Phone (2), we deliver top-notch features while encouraging more intentional smartphone usage through hardware and software design innovation,” said Carl Pei, CEO and Co-founder of Nothing. “The smartphone is a vital tool in our lives, but it has increasingly become a distracting force, making us less present and less creative.”

Iconic Design

Nothing has meticulously engineered Phone (2) with obsessive attention to detail, delivering a refined version of its first-generation smartphone, Phone (1). Phone (2) showcases enhanced aesthetics, achieved through a harmonized and symmetrical design approach that carefully considers the shapes, colors, positioning, and texture of each component. Additionally, the device provides a more ergonomic hands-on experience with a 1 mm thinner midframe and a pillowed glass back.

New Glyph Interface

A keystone of Nothing smartphone design, the Glyph Interface was designed to encourage users to be more present in their everyday life, by providing essential information without the constant need to look at the screen. Additionally, users have the ability to assign personalized light and sound sequences to contacts and apps, allowing them to stay one step ahead of incoming notifications.

Nothing has enhanced its signature Glyph Interface on Phone (2) by increasing the number of LED segments to allow for greater customizability and functionality. The Glyph Interface can now serve as a visual countdown and progress tracker for ride or delivery services. It also offers additional functionalities such as a volume checker, and timer. With Essential Glyph Notifications, users can stay focused without missing what matters the most. When receiving a notification from selected contacts or apps, the top-right LED segment will remain on until it has been addressed.

Through the new Glyph Composer, users can personalize their experience further by creating their own unique Glyph Ringtones.

Nothing OS 2.0

Driven by a desire to reduce distractions and encourage intentional smartphone use, Nothing OS delivers a fast and smooth user experience rooted in utility, while embodying Nothing’s design aesthetics.

With a new monochrome layout and the possibility to remove app labels, Nothing OS 2.0 allows users to be more intentional when navigating their device by removing cues that have been optimized to grab attention. Nothing has reimagined home and lock screen utility with widgets so users can access key functions without having to even open their apps. Nothing OS 2.0 empowers users to customize grid design, widget size, and color themes, while introducing new folder layouts and illustrated covers.

Committed to providing a fast and smooth user experience first and foremost, Nothing has optimized its software, making app opening speed on Phone (2) up to twice as fast as that of Phone (1), while refining over 500 transitions and animations.

Powerful Camera Upgrades

Phone (2) offers Nothing’s most premium smartphone camera experience to date, featuring a 32 MP front camera, and a dual rear camera system that has two advanced 50 MP sensors, with a main sensor upgraded to the Sony IMX890.

Equipped with an advanced 18-bit Image Signal Processor (ISP), Phone (2) has the ability to process camera data up to 4,000 times more than its predecessor, Phone (1). This empowers Phone (2) to leverage cutting-edge algorithms, resulting in incredible levels of accuracy for both photos and videos. Capturing three times more data than before, the new Advanced HDR algorithm takes eight frames with varying exposure levels within the RAW domain of the sensor. This enables it to preserve an abundance of intricate details in each frame, ultimately merging them to produce a final image that captures the most true-to-life result. To further enhance the camera experience, Motion Capture 2.0, an advanced AI-based technology, facilitates real-time identification of moving subjects to ensure precise focus on all crucial details in a frame.

Phone (2) elevates video recording capabilities with stunning 4K resolution at 60fps on the main rear camera. The experience is further enhanced by Action Mode, ensuring seamless filming even while on the move. With built-in EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) and OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), users can expect flawlessly smooth results. Additionally, the front camera enables captivating self-recording in immersive 1080P at 60fps.

Premium Performance

Phone (2) delivers an entirely elevated experience. Packed with the Snapdragon® 8+ Gen 1 Mobile Platform and 4700 mAh battery, Phone (2) delivers a fast performance and lasting battery life to power users through their everyday lives. Users can charge fast and wirelessly, reaching 50% power in just under 20 minutes of fast wired charging.

Featuring Nothing’s most premium smartphone display to date, Phone (2) offers an edge-to-edge 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display with adaptive refresh rate from 120hz to 1z to ensure optimal power consumption and peak performance, without compromising on battery life.
