Teleoperation systems allow the extension of the human operator’s sensing and manipulative capability into a remote environment to perform tasks at a distance, but the time-delays in the communications affect the stability and transparency of such systems. This work presents a teleoperation framework in which some novel tools, such as nonlinear controllers, relational positioning techniques, haptic guiding and augmented reality, are used to increase the sensation of immersion of the human operator in the remote site. Experimental evidence supports the advantages of the proposed framework.
