Human-Centric Multilateral Teleoperation Augmentation: Perception, Telecommunication, and Coordination
Friday 17th May 2024
[Venue Name TBC]
Overview
Teleoperation systems have benefited from incorporating diverse human-machine interfaces, low-latency communication protocols, and advanced control strategies. Nevertheless, they are mostly task-oriented in design, mechanically connecting humans, robots, and networks, while less consideration is paid to the compatibility between these three elements. This oversight ultimately extends the training duration and heightens fatigue levels. Conversely, understanding the remote collaboration patterns among humans can augment the sensorimotor connections and network interactions between humans and robots based on different sites in a teleoperated system. The two focal points converge to construct a paradigm of human-centric teleoperation augmentation, thereby stimulating novel technologies in human factors, robotics, control, and networks.
Aim & Scope
This full-day workshop will provide a platform to delve into the forefront of teleoperation augmentation by seamlessly merging multi-dimensional aspects of human-robot interaction (HRI) and information and communication technology (ICT) from the standing point of humans, such as the multimodal sensory feedback and interface developments to understand and assist humans naturally and effectively as an acquainted partner, and promising 5G and Beyond wireless communications driven by user usage characteristics.
12 experts from academia and industry will present the state-of-the-art on topics including:
Sensation and perception;
Human-centric telecommunications;
Advances in coordinated control design;
Practical application and future challenges arising from human-centric multilateral teleoperation.
