The user interface is the central element of a telepresence robotic system and its visualization modalities greatly affect the operator's situation awareness, and thus its performance. Depending on the task at hand and the operator's preferences, going from ego- and exocentric viewpoints and improving the depth representation can provide better perspectives of the operation environment. Our system, which combines a 3D reconstruction of the environment using laser range finder readings with two video projection methods, allows the operator to easily switch from ego- to exocentric viewpoints. This paper presents the interface developed and demonstrates its capabilities by having 13 operators teleoperate a mobile robot in a navigation task.
