Abstract :
This paper represents work in progress towards a complete remote control system designed to tele-operate robot manipulators. With this aim, a user interface has been designed, enabling the user to control a robot through the Web via any standard browser. Furthermore, in addition to the online control of robots, a virtual 3D representation of the environment, including the robot, allows the user testing all kind of robot actions before executing them (i.e. offline connection). Technical details about managing the user interface and the communication protocol are addressed showing the reliability and feasibility of this system
