Improving the Understanding of a Remote Environment by Immersive Man-Machine Interaction

Springer eBooks, pp. 127–139

Abstract

Abstract In a changing world, the way we interact with machines must change as well. Teleoperation becomes more important. This poses its own set of challenges. To solve these a new Human-Machine interface must be developed. By developing this HMI around the concept of immersion, these challenges can be solved. This new kind of HMI can be applied to different fields. Examples using forestry or remote robot operations are demonstrated.
