Abstract

As technology advances, more and more telerobotic tasks are being developed. For the forseeable future, these remotely controlled systems will depend on human intelligence and perception in order to accomplish complex tasks. It is therefore important to make the human-machine interface as effective and efficient as possible.

This paper describes work done by the University of Toronto and Human Engineering Research and Consulting (HERC) for the Defence and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine (DCIEM) to investigate the benefits of using stereoscopic video and Augmented Reality for defence-related teleoperation.
