Advanced Teleoperation Architecture

摘要

In this paper we report on the efforts carried out at the Robotics Laboratory ALTAIR of the University of Verona (Italy) towards the development of a high performance architecture for bilateral, i.e. force reflecting, teleoperation system. This architecture, called Penelope, takes into account the main features of a haptics system: real-time behavior, distributed resources, general purpose structure and safe exchange of data. The emphasis here is on heterogeneous hardware and software within the same structure
