Internet-based teleoperation of a robot manipulator for education

In order to facilitate the study of the robot manipulator control for the users who cannot access the real robot manipulator, we are developing an Internet-based teleoperation system for a robot manipulator-Thermo CRS A465 which is located in the lab at Lakehead University. In this paper, the system architecture and software design will be introduced.
