  • CfP: Telemanipulation (SPIE, Boston)

    Dear Biomch-L readers,

    Further to my posting on 6 March about Paul Schenker's Sensor Fusion Meeting
    during SPIE's OE/Technology '92 conference in Boston during November, the
    following item from Usenet's comp.robotics might also be of interest. The
    abstract submission deadline is very soon, but if anyone wishes to submit by
    email, (s)he may get in touch with me: I have an email contact address.

    With kind regards -- hjw.

    DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION: APRIL 20, 1992

    ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS
    Telemanipulator Technology
    Part of SPIE's OE/Technology `92
    15-20 November, 1992
    Hynes Convention Center,
    Boston, Massachusetts, USA

    Program Chair: Hari Das, Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

    Program Committee: Dov Adelstein, NASA Ames Research Center,
    Blake Hannaford, University of Washington,
    Samuel Landsberger, Cornell University,
    Sukhan Lee, USC,
    Thomas Sheridan, MIT.

    This program will address problems associated with technologies
    developed to facilitate remote manipulation by human operators.
    Target applications for these technologies include hazardous
    and/or unstructured workplaces, where the task environment may
    be beyond the range of direct human manipulation and sensing, and
    where human sensory information processing and decision-making
    skills allow telemanipulators to outperform purely autonomous
    systems.

    A variety of fields related to telemanipulation will be covered
    in this program. In addition to hardware implementation (e.g.,
    electronics and computer architectures, master-slave systems,
    anthropomorphic manipulators, hand controllers, and sensors),
    new telemanipulator developments in modeling, analysis and
    control that help deal with communication delays and provide
    stable high bandwidth operation will be considered. Other
    topics such as sensory presentation to improve visualization
    of remote or virtual environments, virtual environments
    for operator training and time delay compensation,
    man-machine interfaces for complex teleoperator system
    management, and studies of operator training and performance
    will also be included.

    Papers in the following areas and related topics are being
    solicited:

    - hardware implementation for telemanipulators and
    telemanipulator components
    - modeling, analysis, and control of telemanipulators
    - telepresence and virtual environments
    - sensory information processing and presentation
    - man-machine systems and operator aids
    - human operator training and performance evaluation
