Intelligent Networked Teleoperation Control

This book describes a unifying framework to networked teleoperation systems cutting across multiple research fields including networked control system for linear and nonlinear forms, bilateral teleoperation, trilateral teleoperation, multilateral teleoperation, cooperative teleoperation, and some teleoperation application examples. Networked control has been deeply studied at the intersection of systems & control and robotics for a long time, and many scholarly books on the topic have been already published. Nevertheless, the approach remains active even in several new research fields, such as bilateral teleoperation, single master and multiple slaves, trilateral teleoperation, and multilateral teleoperation
