Abstract

In many real world teleoperation applications like mining, advanced teleoperation techniques are needed. Full tele-presence provides the best possible resources for controlling a moving machine. Unfortunately full tele-presence is expensive to implement and may be used only when really needed.

In this paper different types of tele-presence systems are compared. All systems were installed in the same teleoperated vehicle. Different kinds of tasks like corridor driving, loading, etc. were driven with all systems by several users. The comparison is made by timing the executions, registering errors, and interviewing the operators.
