TEDx Rocketminds André Schiele - Live Robot Demonstration 650km
Channel: The X Laboratory
Date: 13/02/2017

Back in 2014 presented this talk on human-robot interaction and the final live (unstaged!) teleoperation demonstration between Germany (TEDx Venue) and the Netherlands (robot at my Lab in Noordwijk). Crazy Network conditions with heavy signal drop out, delay, packet loss.. see the orange lamp that should continuously rotate in the video.. But managed to pick and place a sub-millimeter toleranced peg into a receptacle from this 650km distance!
In the mean-time we did teleoperation from space, through a 160.000 km round-trip distance via GEO relay satellites (Haptics-2, Interact Experiments on ISS)
... but boy, back in 2014 I was nervous and hiding this all the way ;)
