AeroVR: Virtual Reality-based Teleoperation with Tactile Feedback for Aerial Manipulation

We suggest a new approach to remote aerial manipulation using VR twins of the real drone and target object, and wearable motion capturing interface enhanced with tactile feedback for intuitive control of object manipulation using robotic arm of the drone. The paper focuses on the development of a novel teleoperation system for aerial manipulation using Virtual Reality (VR). The controlled system consists of UAV with a 4-DoF robotic arm and embedded sensors. VR application presents the digital twin of drone
