Abstract :
The collaborative research center SFB453 (www.sfb453.de) aims to realize high-fidelity telepresence and teleaction systems. Telepresence and teleaction systems extend the human workspace to remote locations in order to overcome barriers like distance, scaling, danger or the human skin. Using a human-system interface the human operator controls a remotely located teleoperator. Multi-modal feedback in form of visual, auditory, and haptic data is used to increase the feeling of telepresence. Different application areas including minimally invasive surgery, on-orbit servicing, microassembly as well as tele-manufacturing and tele-maintenance are targeted.
