title = "Applications of networked virtual reality for tele-operation and tele-assistance systems in the mining industry",
abstract = "The mining industry is interested in tele-operation systems to remove mining operators from hazardous or inconvenient environments without losing efficiency. Technologies to enhance the operator's experience are advancing but there is a lack of evidence supporting the extent to which these emerging technologies positively affect user experience. In this paper, we describe three applications that make use of networked virtual and mixed reality. These prototype systems each represent a step towards new VR based technologies that will increase the efficiency and safety of the mining industry.",
