Inhabit a robot from a distance

摘要

A $10 MILLION competition aims to get people to control a robot and carry out tasks from 100 kilometres away. Not just that, but the controllers should be able to feel, hear and touch the robot's surroundings too. The XPrize non-profit organisation launched the ANA XPrize Avatar Challenge on Monday at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. Teams must submit their plans to a panel of expert judges by the end of January 2019.
