A telepresence robot is a tele operated industrial robotic system used to provide a virtual presence of an operator in a remote environment. The robot is equipped with cameras, sensors and other devices that allow the operator to see, hear and interact with the environment as if they were physically present.
Telepresence robots are often used in hazardous or difficult-to-reach environments, such as manufacturing plants or oil rigs, where they can provide a safe and efficient way to carry out tasks. In many cases, telepresence robots can be controlled by an operator from a remote location using a computer or mobile device.
This type of system can be particularly useful for conducting inspections or making repairs in difficult-to-reach areas. Additionally, telepresence robots can be used to provide assistance to workers in remote locations, such as providing instructions or assisting with tasks. In some cases, telepresence systems can also be used for reconnaissance or security purposes.
