Remote robot execution through WWW simulation

This paper shows the state of art teleoperation and simulation systems and proposes some possible network architectures devoted to the development of such systems. A method for the optimization of robot tasks is also suggested. The application proposed can teleoperate a robot arm with five degrees of freedom through Internet by using a previous simulation system and visual feedback. This simulation can be accessed simultaneously by different workers. As a result, the number of robots required can be reduced on new applications or dangerous environments.
