“…The visible light path laser projector (VLLP) described in [100] was equipped with a laser projector and a mist generator. This solution had the advantage that the laser projector, VLLP, could instruct with not only a laser spot but also with simple line drawings.…”

Due to the appearance of COVID-19 in 2019, person-to-person interactions were drastically reduced. The impact of these restrictions on the economic environment was significant. For example, technical assistance for commissioning or adjusting the parameters of some complex machines/installations had to be postponed. Economic operators became interested in the possibility of remote collaboration, depending on the manufactured products and the performance of the production lines that they owned. This bibliographic research was undertaken to address these needs. The purpose of this review was to analyze the current solutions, approaches, and technologies that workers and specialists can implement to obtain a reliable remote collaboration system. This survey focuses on techniques, devices, and tools that are being used in different contexts to provide remote guidance. We present communication cues and methods being employed, the implemented technological support, and the areas that benefit from remote collaboration. We hope that our effort will be useful to those who develop such systems and people who want to learn about the existence of collaborative solutions, and that it will increase awareness about the applications and the importance of the domain. We are convinced that, with the development of communication systems, the advancement of remote support systems will be a goal for many economic operators.

“…Some mobile robots, that support human's daily life, are guided by a laser pointer manipulated by a human [15] [16]. In some telecommunication support systems (terminals/robots) equipped with a laser pointer [17][18] [19][20], a human is able to make his/her intentions to another in a remote site clear and concrete by directing the laser pointer to a particular spot, and this makes detailed oral descriptions unnecessary. Moreover, it becomes possible to direct using pronouns, such as "this" or "that", by pointing a particular spot using a laser pointer.…”

This paper presents a guidance method using a laser pointer attached to a librarian robot and gestures consist of body movements. Our librarian robot, that is fixed in an experimental environment, is able to say greeting properly based on estimation results of human behavior using a laser range finder, talk with a library user with a natural language, search books depending on a user's request. When the robot explains where a requested book is in the library, it points out a target position using a laser spot while the body and head are also turned around to the direction of the target. This makes detailed oral explanations unnecessary. However, the robot cannot always point out a target position directly using the laser pointer. So we design three types of guidance using the laser pointer and the gestures depending on the library environment. Some experimental results reveal the validity and effectiveness of our proposed guidance method using the laser pointer and some gestures for our librarian robot. 19th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication Principe di Piemonte -Viareggio, Italy, Sept. 12-15, 2010 978-1-4244-7989-4/10/$26.00 ©2010 IEEE 978-1-4244-7990-0/10/$26.00 ©2010 IEEE
