Remote presence for guidance on physical tasks

该项目旨在改变物理任务的远程协作。目前的物理任务远程协作系统不如面对面工作有效。这可以通过分享非语言线索，设计系统来解决文化问题，以及使用新的沟通模式来克服。本项目将根据自然非语言交流线索和文化问题，开发远程指导的理论和交互方法。预计该项目将使采矿、国防和医药等拥有广泛分布的多文化劳动力的行业受益。

This project aims to transform remote collaboration on physical tasks. Current systems for remote collaboration on physical tasks are not as effective as working face-to-face. This could be overcome by sharing non-verbal cues, designing systems to account for cultural issues, and using a new model of communication. This project will develop theories and interaction methods for remote guidance based on natural non-verbal communication cues and cultural issues. This project is expected to benefit industries with widely distributed multi-cultural workforces such as mining, defence and medicine.
