Teleoperation, a seemingly simple capability, involves a multitude of technologies and systems in order to be implemented safely. In the first article from this series we established what ...

A wearable, ultralight interface for bimanual teleoperation of a compliant, whole-body-controlled humanoid robot: This video presents an unobtrusive bimanual teleoperation setup with very low weight, ...

Microsurgery requires manipulating delicate tissue or fragile structures such as small blood vessels, nerves, and tubes through a microscope. The operation accuracy of humans' hand is about 0.1 mm ...

When it comes to edge cases – fallen trees, road work, officers directing traffic, etc. – autonomous vehicles (AV) continue to remain dependent on human assistance. Which is a key reason that, for the ...

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have already racked up thousands of uninterrupted hours of autonomous driving. But there are still plenty of cases where AVs need humans to intervene and guide their response ...

This study proposes a Human Machine Interface (HMI) system with adaptive visual stimuli to facilitate teleoperation of industrial vehicles such as forklifts. The proposed system estimates the ...

Robotics training infrastructure startup XDOF said today it has raised $70 million in funding to try to solve one of the ...

Teleoperation can be of assistance when a car that usually runs largely autonomously cannot cope on its own. DLR is conducting research into ways of implementing the concept of teleoperation. This ...

This article is part of a VB special issue. Read the full series: Automation and jobs in the new normal. When an interviewer pressed Postmates VP Ali Kashani last year on whether the company’s use of ...

Vehicle teleoperation has never been so … legal. Teleoperation enables a human operator to control vehicles from far away. In July, Florida became the sixth state to explicitly allow autonomous ...

Remote control technology is a core means of ensuring personnel safety in high-risk scenarios such as deep-sea exploration and nuclear facility maintenance. However, existing exoskeleton ...
