Abstract :
A technique for virtual transducer formation has been developed to augment remote environment perception by adding proximity feel in tele-robotic systems. It induces proximity feel around approachable and unapproachable parts in distinctly different ways. It uses robot´s in built sensors and develops perceivable reaction. The transducer is applicable to tele-robots working in `man in loop´ modality for augmenting perception of remote environment at the master side.
