The impact of data sonification in virtual reality robot teleoperation (2022)
Journal Article
Bremner, P., Mitchell, T. J., & McIntosh, V. (2022). The impact of data sonification in virtual reality robot teleoperation. Frontiers in Virtual Reality, 3, 904720. https://doi.org/10.3389/frvir.2022.904720

Virtual Reality (VR) is being increasingly used to provide a more intuitive and embodied approach to robotic teleoperation, giving operators a sense of presence in the remote environment. Prior research has shown that presence can be enhanced when ad... Read More about The impact of data sonification in virtual reality robot teleoperation.
