Abstract :
Development of the international industry is towards smaller and smaller batch sizes in the production. This has riced a need for cost efficient support of robot users. In this paper, new methodology for remote operation of industrial robot systems is introduced. The method is based upon multi-modal man-machine communication and sensor bridging to transfer the huge amount of information from the industrial robot cell to the brain of the remote operator.
