Dstl and the NDA, who are keen to realise the potential benefits of such technologies in the nuclear sector. The Telexistence competition aims to develop and demonstrate innovative technologies and novel solutions that have the potential to give military and government personnel, emergency services, or humanitarian workers the capability to operate in hazardous environments without physically being present. Ultimately, this capability will allow a human operator to perform complex tasks and operate equipment from a safe distance. Rob Baldock, This is the culmination of several years of deve...
