Abstract :
This paper presents state-of-the-art issues concerning virtual reality (VR) as applied to robotics and control. After a short outline of the fundamental VR notions, the use of VR in robot (manipulator, mobile) telecontrol is discussed and some principal results are provided. Two representative examples are briefly described along with some concluding remarks
