In this paper, a spatial coherent remote driving system was designed and implemented to operate a telexistence backhoe over a wireless network. Accordingly, we developed a 6 degrees of Freedom (DOF) slave robot that can mimic the human upper body movement; a cockpit with motion tracking system and a Head Mounted Display (HMD) where the […]

In this paper, a mobile telexistence system that provides mutual embodiment of user’s body in a remote place is discussed. A fully mobile slave robot was designed and developed to deliver visual and motion mapping with user’s head and body. The user can access the robot remotely using a Head Mounted Display (HMD) and set […]

We propose an indirect-vision, video-see-through augmented reality (AR) cockpit that uses telexistence technology to provide an AR enriched, virtually transparent view of the surroundings through monitors instead of windows. Such a virtual view has the potential to enhance driving performance and experience above conventional glass as well as head-up display equipped cockpits by combining AR […]

In this paper, a new sports genre, “Aerial Sports” is introduced where the humans and robots collaborate to enjoy space as a whole new field. By integrating a flight unit with the user’s voluntary motion, everyone can enjoy the crossing physical limitations such as height and physique. The user can dive into the drone by […]

With the advancements in Internet based services, the demands for better communication tools became higher in order to fill the distance gaps between people. Especially in our daily activities when we are traveling abroad. The traditional video/audio communication tools became actively available within our reach thanks to smartphone advancements. Internet based conferencing such as “Google […]

In this paper, a mutual body representation for Telexistence Robots that does not have physical arms were discussed. We propose a method of projecting user’s hands as a virtual superimposition that not only the user sees through a HMD, but also to the remote participants by projecting virtual hands images into the remote environment with […]

Telexistence systems require physical limbs for remote object manipulation. Having arms and hands synchronized with voluntary movements allows the user to feel robot’s body as his body through visual, and haptic sensation. In this method, we introduce a novel technique that provides virtual arms for existing telexistence systems that does not have physical arms. Previous […]

In this paper, we focus on designing a customizable modular based virtual platform for modeling, simulating and testing telexistence applications, where the physical parameters are preserved in the virtual environment; for motor control of physical characteristics of robot as well as sensory feedback of vision, auditory, haptic. We proposed “Virtual Telesar” which allows telexistence engineers […]
