This work presents a method for tactile classification of materials for virtual reality (VR) based robot teleoperation. In our system, a human-operator uses a remotely controlled robot-manipulator with an optical fibre-based tactile and proximity sensor to scan surfaces of objects in a remote environment. Tactile and proximity data and the robot's end-effector state feedback are used for the class...
