RT Conference Proceedings T1 Integrating Olfaction in a Robotic Telepresence Loop A1 González-Monroy, Javier A1 Meléndez-Fernández, Francisco A1 Góngora González, Andrés A1 González-Jiménez, Antonio Javier K1 Robots autónomos AB In this work we propose enhancing a typicalrobotic telepresence architecture by considering olfactory and wind flow information in addition to the common audio and video channels. The objective is to expand the range of applications where robotics telepresence can be applied, including those related to the detection of volatile chemical substances (e.g. land-mine detection, explosive deactivation, operationsin noxious environments, etc.). Concretely, we analyze how the sense of smell can be integrated in the telepresence loop, covering the digitization of the gases and wind flowpresent in the remote environment, the transmission throughthe communication network, and their display at the user location. Experiments under different environmental conditions are presented to validate the proposed telepresence system whenlocalizing a gas emission leak at the remote environment.
