Video demonstrating our system for using a robot to operate a camera while the user interactively controls another robot. Video accompaniment to our HRI 2018 paper (best paper award winner).

This is the video accompaniment to our best-paper award winning paper An Autonomous Dynamic Camera Method for Effective Remote Teleoperation from HRI 2018. It demonstrates a system that allows the user to control a robot manipulator and see what they are doing by having a second robot control a video camera that watches the action.
