            TELE-OPERATED ROBOTS
            Tele-operated  robots are semi-autonomous  robots  designed  to  be  controlled  from a
            distance. They can operate as an agent for humans or other programs to simulate human

            activity. The signals to these robots can be sent through a wireless system or satellites.
            They are used by the government for surveillance purposes, and they are also the most
            common types of medical robots in use today.

            Examples of Tele-operated robots are:
