Abstract :
Complex tasks in unstructured/hazardous environments often require teleoperation. The telepresence robot featured here has “user friendly” limb linked output and feedback systems. The mechanism design and sensory feedback of visual, audio and multi-functional tactile (pressure, texture/slip and thermal parameters) are described
