Teleoperation
Teleoperation is a technology that allows a person to control a machine or robot from a distance. This is often done using a computer or a remote control, enabling the operator to perform tasks without being physically present. For example, a surgeon can use teleoperation to perform delicate procedures on a patient located in a different city, using robotic arms that mimic their movements.
This technology is widely used in various fields, including space exploration, where astronauts can control rovers on distant planets, and underwater exploration, where divers can operate remotely controlled vehicles to investigate the ocean floor. Teleoperation enhances safety and efficiency in challenging environments.
