Demo: FoReCo – A Forecast-Based Recovery Mechanism for Real-Time Remote Control of Robotic Manipulators

The demonstration presents FoReCo, a solution that recovers control commands lost when robots are controlled remotely over a wireless link. Visitors drive a robotic arm with a joystick while packets are lost in the wireless medium, which distorts the arm’s trajectory. FoReCo, using an ML model trained on a real-world dataset, recovers the lost commands so that the arm keeps moving smoothly despite the losses.
