Abstract

Presents two types of teleoperation system concepts proposed and demonstrated under the MITI advanced robot project. One is a tele-existence system which enables a human operator at the controls to perform remote manipulation tasks dexterously with the feeling that he or she actually exists in one of the remote anthromorphic robots in the remote environment. The other type is intelligent teleoperation systems. Two types of intelligent teleoperation systems have been developed under the advanced teleoperation concept: one is a model-based telerobot system and the other is a system with robot intelligence to interact with the human operator. Two integrated robots for nuclear power plant and subsea applications have been developed and demonstrated successfully
