Técnico podcast “110 Histórias, 110 Objetos” – The space teleoperation console

The podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) covers the 110 years of history of Instituto Superior Técnico, through its past, present and future objects.

A collection of objects related to different fields, such as science, music, arts and sports, is the starting point for conversations with people who will tell us more about the history of these objects.

A new episode is released every week. The podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) is part of the Público newspaper podcasts.

Today’s episode (#105) – 4th August 2023: “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) – The space teleoperation console.

Created by Técnico researchers, the space teleoperation console is a technological solution, with tactile devices that improve the process of repairing a robot from a distance. It looks like an image from the future: a robot on Mars and a human being on Earth receiving all its sensations. But that’s exactly what this technology already allows: to handle visual information overload that even experienced teleoperators usually have to deal with by adding tactile sensations. The console was tested on a Mars-like mission in 2021 in Israel’s Negev desert. The team already has another mission scheduled for 2024.
