Definition
Noun: 1. The branch of robotics concerned with the control of robots from a distance: Telerobotics is a field of engineering and technology that focuses on operating robotic systems remotely, where a human operator is not physically present at the robot's location. It involves the transmission of commands to the robot and the reception of sensory feedback (like video, sound, or force data) from the robot's environment back to the operator.
Usage Examples
- Noun:
- Advances in telerobotics have made deep-sea exploration more feasible.
- The surgeon used telerobotics to perform the delicate procedure from another city.
- His research is focused on improving latency issues in telerobotics.
Advanced Usage
- "Haptic telerobotics": A sub-field where the robotic system provides force or tactile feedback to the human operator, allowing them to "feel" the remote environment.
- Haptic telerobotics is essential for tasks requiring precise manipulation, like remote surgery or handling hazardous materials.
Variants and Related Words
- Telerobotic (adj): Pertaining to or involving telerobotics.
- The telerobotic arm was controlled via a satellite link.
- Teleoperation (n): Often used synonymously with telerobotics, specifically referring to the direct, real-time control of a remote robot.
- Telepresence (n): The use of technology to give a person the sensation of being present at a remote location, frequently achieved through telerobotic systems.
Synonyms
- Remote robotics
- Teleoperation (in many contexts)
Related Concepts (Not Phrasal Verbs or Idioms)
- Supervisory Control: A control mode in telerobotics where the operator gives high-level commands, and the robot's onboard intelligence handles the fine details of execution.
- Bilateral Control: A control scheme in telerobotics where commands are sent to the robot and force feedback is simultaneously sent back to the operator.
Noun
- the area of robotics that is concerned with the control of robots from a distance
