Optimally. a reniote telepresence reproduces visual sensations that enable equivalent understanding and interaction as direct operation. Through irnrnersive video acquisition and display. the situational awareness ola remote operator is brought closer lo that of direct operation. Early teleoperation research considered the value of wide tields of view. Howe~er. utilization of wide fields of view meant sacrificing resolution and presenting distorted imagery to the viewer. With recent advances in technology. these problems are no longer barriers to hyper-wide field of view video.
