Immersive Control of a Robot Surrogate for Users in Palliative Care

Quality of life (QoL) is especially important for palliative care patients, who can be at risk of mental health issues. This project aims to design and implement an immersive control system for a robotic surrogate, that allows users to interact as naturally as possible with their loved ones from a remote location, and navigate appropriately, in order to improve QoL for those living with a terminal illness.
