Welcome to the Telepresence and Virtual Reality webpage of the Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics of the German Aerospace Center (DLR).

Please click on the overview section to have a general idea of the work performed by our group and/or select one of the three main investigated research areas (Telerobotics, Telepresence and Virtual Reality) in order to have a more detailed information.

Overview In telepresence, a human operator immerses him/herself into a remote environment and controls a tele-operated device on motion and force level. By means of a multimodal human machine interface (HMI) the human perceives and acts as in the real world. Our research group places special emphasis on the haptic feedback in order to make the experience of exploring virtual or remote environments more realistic. Mehr

Research Areas We research into Telerobotics, Telepresence and Virtual Reality with Haptic Rendering. Mehr
