Introduction to advances in telerobotics

Abstract

The objective of atelerobotic system is to connect humans and robots in order to reproduce operator actions at a distance. We must take numerous matters into account in order to efficiently produce such interaction, most of which are related to human interaction, distributed control, and information flow between operator and remote robots. All these topics are dealt with in depth in this book. © 2007 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
