  1. Telerobotics Lindsey White and David Senter

  2. Wirelessly-controlled robots • Many applications in modern science What Are They?

  3. Medical • Mining • Space Exploration • Dangerous Material Handling Applications

  4. Prosthetic limbs • Endoscopic robots Medical Applications

  5. Allows exploration and mining in less accessible places because robots can function in unsuitable conditions for human life Mining

  6. Similar to mining, allows exploration in non-life-supporting conditions (space) • Also allows remote operation of telescopes Space Exploration

  7. The Hubble Space Telescope is a famous example of a space telerobot. Scientists all over the world can operate it from earth to view different parts of the sky. Space Exploration (cont’d)

  8. So no humans are put in danger, telerobots can be used to handle dangerous materials. (e.g. radioactive waste) Dangerous Materials

  9. An old website which allowed users to remotely care for a real garden using a robotic arm. • Made by University of Southern California TeleGarden
