Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research project has focused on the development of fundamental robotic technology for remote-sensing of the environment. The basic theory about teleoperation of mobile robot with sensory feedback has been established. In addition, the environmental recognition method by sensors such as camera and laser sensor has also been developed. The presented method could achieve force-dimension feedback based on environmental information obtained by the sensor. The utility of the methods was confirmed by the actual experiments.
