Most human–drone interfaces, such as joysticks and remote controllers, require attention and developed skills during teleoperation. More natural and intuitive drone operation, which makes this technology available to wider range of users, can be achieved through wearable interfaces. In this study, we introduce a VR (virtual reality) interface for allowing a single user to control multiple UAVs in an intuitive manner. In the VR human-computer interaction environment, instead of using the traditional keyboard, mouse and touch screen, natural interaction languages such as gestures and body movements are used. We show a preliminary result of natural interactive UAV control experiment in VR immersive environment.
