Dr YU Xinge and his research team have developed an innovative human-machine interface system, Robotic VR, in which teleoperated robots can imitate the user’s actions and perform complicated tasks. This technology demonstrates the potential for conducting COVID-19 swab tests and nursing patients with infectious diseases.

Robotic VR is based on skin-integrated electronics that interface with the human body for wireless motion, capturing the haptic feedback through the internet, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

The research study was published in Science Advances under the title “Electronic Skin as Wireless Human Machine Interfaces for Robotic VR”.
