IEEE Future Directions Symposium on Telepresence: 9-10 November 2022 | Virtual Event

IEEE Future Directions Workshop: The Future of Telepresence1-3 November 2021 | Virtual Event

The IEEE Future of Telepresence workshop is an opportunity to look at the big picture and seek understanding of the details of addressing a long-held goal of technical communities: to permit human beings to bring their talent, skill, and expertise to bear on complex problems from a distance.

The workshop sets its focus on teleoperations and important functional considerations like sensor selection, sensitivity, and fidelity, or fixed vs. mobile systems. Overall, this effort aims to accelerate the missing technology components and encourage integrated telepresence systems.
