Telepresence Robots for Academics
Telepresence robotics is a sophisticated form of robotic remote control in which a human operator has a sense of being on location – that is, of being telepresent. I propose a demonstration of two telepresence robots, one floor model (VGo) and one tabletop model (KUBI). In this proposal, I describe the technology and briefly summarize the research that led to the purchase of the robots. The res...
متن کاملAn Assisted Navigation Method for Telepresence Robots
Telepresence robots have emerged as a new means of interaction in remote environments. However, the use of such robots is still limited due to safety and usability issues when operating in human-like environments. This work addresses these issues by enhancing the robot navigation through a collaborative control method that assists the user to negotiate obstacles. The method has been implemented...
متن کاملTelepresence Robots in Daily Life
Mobile remote presence systems (MRPs) are the logical next step in telepresence, but what are the ethical, social, legal, and technical implications of such systems going into the wide wild world? We explored these potential issues by immersing ourselves in a range of possible applications by re-purposing commercially available MRPs. This is a researcher-as-experimental-subject (RAES) approach ...
متن کاملMeasuring Attitudes Towards Telepresence Robots
Studies using Nomura et al.’s “Negative Attitude toward Robots Scale” (NARS) [1] as an attitudinal measure have featured robots that were perceived to be autonomous, independent agents. State of the art telepresence robots require an explicit human-in-the-loop to drive the robot around. In this paper, we investigate if NARS can be used with telepresence robots. To this end, we conducted three s...
متن کاملSemi-Automatic Control of Telepresence Robots
Companies all over the world started to produce and sell telepresence robots in the last decade. Users of these robots have to plan their way to avoid collisions and control the speed of the robot to move it to destination point. This interface is familiar to many people who play computer games, but it causes difficulties for the older generation and disabled people. We present here a novel int...
