Abstract

One of the key challenges in telepresence and teleaction systems is the fact that a global control loop is closed over a communication network. The transmission delay of haptic information is extremely critical. Therefore, new data samples from the haptic sensors are typically immediately forwarded to the receiver which leads to a large number of packets being generated when using the Internet as the communication infrastructure. We present a novel approach to reduce the number of packets and, therefore, the amount data communicated in a telepresence and teleaction system. Our method uses a passive deadband transmission approach which only delivers data packets over the network when the sampled sensor data changes more than a given threshold value. The threshold value is determined by psychophysical experiments. This approach leads to a considerable reduction (up to 90%) of packet rate and data rate without sacrificing the fidelity and immersiveness of the system.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
