Semi-autonomous cooperative driving for mobile robotic telepresence systems

open access: yesProceedings of the 2014 ACM/IEEE international conference on Human-robot interaction, 2014
Mobile robotic telepresence (MRP) has been introduced to allow communication from remote locations. Modern MRP systems offer rich capabilities for human-human interactions. However, simply driving a telepresence robot can become a burden especially for novice users, leaving no room for interaction at all. In this video we introduce a project which aims
