This paper present a short story of the transfer of force-feedback technologies from teleoperation to virtual reality. Thanks to its experience on virtual reality applications, the Haption company, here presented, illustrates the technological advances of teleoperation for the needs of the nuclear and industrial applications.

This paper describes the haptic rendering of a virtual environment by drawing upon concepts developed in the area of teleoperation. A four-channel teleoperation architecure is shown to be an effective means of coordinating the control of a new 3-DOF haptic interface with the simulation of a virtual dynamic environment.

I the last several decades, minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has changed the traditional approaches surgery procedures dramatically. MIS could decrease suffered pain, shorten recovery time and hospital stays for the patient. Teleoperation can solve many problems encountered in conventional surgery, so it is often used in MIS surgery. Teleoperation system is a kind of semiautonomous system; the ...

This thesis summarizes guidelines for the design and control of a highly integrated, multi-modal, and intuitive teleoperation system that can be used to perform a variety of different manipulation tasks requiring bimanual and multi-fingered interactions as well as the collaboration of multiple operators. Hereby, exclusively teleoperation systems using admittance-type devices are investigated. B...

A bilateral teleoperation system comprises a human operator, a teleoperator, and an environment. The teleoperator consists of a master robot, a slave robot, their controllers, and a communication channel between the master and the slave. Since the exact models of the teleoperator’s terminations, namely the human operator and the environment, are typically unknown and/or time-varying, passivity ...

Over the last 50 years, master-slave teleoperation has become a widespread and successful field of research. This discipline explores how to perform tasks using a robot on an environment with haptic feedback about robot-environment interaction being provided to the human operator. Most of the master and slave manipulators used in teleoperation are electrically actuated. However, in some particu...

Robots are slowly moving from factories to mines, construction sites, public places and homes. This new type of robot or robotized working machine – field and service robots (FSR) – should be capable of performing different kinds of tasks in unstructured changing environments, not only among humans but through continuous interaction with humans. The main requirements for an FSR are mobility, ad...

This paper presents model-based predictive controllers that achieve a high level of transparency while maintaining stability in bilateral teleoperation under known constant or variable time delay. This goal is accomplished by utilizing available information on system model and time delay within an adaptive predictive control framework. The performance objectives are delay-free position tracking...

—Visual feedback is the most important form of perception within teleoperation, therefore there a need for solution that allows increased potential information gain camera can provide, this be obtained by having able to move its position relatively base robot. Therefore, paper focuses on use drone act as dynamic in teleoperation scenarios. The control performed via hand tracking through wearabl...

Teleoperation robots remain superior to fully automated in complicated and unstructured environments (e.g., in-orbit assembly). However, the collision risk is also greatly increased these environments. Therefore, teleoperation robot should possess capability of perception be configured with security assistance strategy improve safety efficiency. With this objective mind, paper proposes a assess...
