Controlling robots remotely in spite of transmission delays
Researchers from the MAchine Perception and Intelligent Robotics (MAPIR) group of the System Engineering and Automation Dpt. of the University of Málaga have implemented a web-based graphical interface to control remote robots that guarantees the continuity and reability of such control when some of the components of the system, like the network communications or the application software, produce non-deterministic time delays in the transmission of sensory data from the robot to the human operator. This interface has been developed in the context of the research project Remote Optimal, Adaptative Control of Mobile Robots
