Abstract

PdaDriver is a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) system for vehicle teleoperation.It is designed to be easy-to-deploy, to minimize the need for training, and to enable effective remote driving through multiple control modes.This paper presents the motivation for PdaDriver, its current design, and recent outdoor tests with a mobile robot.
