Avatar System

Avatar systems aim to enable remote human presence and interaction through robotic surrogates, focusing on achieving immersive telepresence and intuitive control. Current research emphasizes developing robust and user-friendly interfaces, including advanced haptic feedback, high-fidelity 3D avatar rendering (e.g., using layered Gaussian splatting), and efficient data compression for low-latency communication across distances. Successful implementations, as demonstrated in recent competitions, highlight the potential for significant advancements in teleoperation, remote collaboration, and accessibility for individuals with mobility limitations.
