I'm looking for some information on telerobotics. I'm new to the field
and I want to educate myself on the state of the art. I'd also like to
find sources of commercial systems and/or component manufacturers.

The application I'm interested in is hazardous environment equipment
handling, construction and repair of heavy equipment. Tele-medical
precision is definitely not required, but I may have to manipulate 500
lb objects. This isn't a nuclear or chemical application and the
separation between the tools and operator will be no more than a few
hundred feet (dedicated comm. can be used so as not to worry about
Internet latency and security).

Re: Telerobotics


I can't really comment upon the US market place but in the UK I'd
suggest looking at these....

I don't think they offer much on their websites that will educate, some
general info can be found here:-

These guys are born out of JET nuclear fusion research project, while
the former have been employers at one time or another ;)
