Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As robotics technology continues to evolve, the integration of augmented reality (AR) with robot teleoperation is emerging as a transformative approach, enhancing how humans interact with and control robots across various domains. Robots, traditionally confined to simple and repetitive tasks like grasping or pick-and-place operations, are now being employed in more complex scenarios, including medical interventions, industrial automation, and hazardous environment exploration. The inclusion of AR into teleoperation opens up new avenues for increasing the accuracy, safety, and efficiency of these robotic applications.
However, the application of AR in robot teleoperation involves unique challenges, such as designing intuitive AR interfaces, improving sensory feedback, and enhancing control algorithms. These elements are crucial for fostering more natural and effective human–robot interaction. This Special Issue aims to showcase research that pushes the boundaries of AR integration with teleoperated robotic systems, addressing technical challenges, innovations in user experience, and advances in system integration.
We invite authors to submit research that explores innovative methods, approaches, designs, concepts, and software tools tailored to enhancing robot teleoperation through the use of augmented reality. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, AR interface design, sensory feedback enhancement, the adaptation of control systems for AR, and empirical studies assessing the impact of AR on teleoperation efficacy.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Robotics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
