A novel teleoperated long-reach manipulator testbed and its remote capabilities via the Internet

During the 1995 DOE Robotics Forum at Albuquerque, New Mexico, Georgia Tech's Intelligent Machine Dynamics Laboratory demonstrated remote display capabilities of its telemanipulated long-reach manipulator testbed through the Internet. This paper describes the testbed and addresses the methods, limitations, and capabilities of remote operations.
