PeriGuru: A Peripheral Robotic Mobile App Operation Assistant based on GUI Image Understanding and Prompting with LLM

원문 초록

Smartphones have significantly enhanced our daily learning, communication, and entertainment, becoming an essential component of modern life. However, certain populations, including the elderly and individuals with disabilities, encounter challenges in utilizing smartphones, thus necessitating mobile app operation assistants, a.k.a. mobile app agent. With considerations for privacy, permissions, and cross-platform compatibility issues, we endeavor to devise and develop PeriGuru in this work, a peripheral robotic mobile app operation assistant based on GUI image understanding and prompting with Large Language Model (LLM). PeriGuru leverages a suite of computer vision techniques to analyze GUI screenshot images and employs LLM to inform action decisions, which are then executed by robotic arms. PeriGuru achieves a success rate of 81.94% on the test task set, which surpasses by more than double the method without PeriGuru's GUI image interpreting and prompting design.
