Abstract
Teleoperation is de defined by pioneer in robotics and remote control technology,
Thomas B. Sheridan [1] as:
"Teleoperation is the extension of a person's sensing and manipulation
capability to a remote location."
It is used in a wide variety of situations and environments including: Unmanned
Aerial Vehicles (UAV), Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV), nuclear
reactors, Mars rovers and many more [2, 3, 4]. Much research is aimed at
improving the robot's communication software/hardware, sensors, effectiveness
of control and autonomy. However, considerably less research addresses
the ease of use or user experience [5] of these systems. The focus points of
this thesis will include what methods of teleoperating robots work best, is
the easiest to learn, least exhausting or most fun?
