One reason for that idea is the graphic model is fixed for a special real environment. Whenever we move some element in the real world, we have to re-build the graphic model as soon as possible. If the real world involves some moving element, like a toy train on a circlar track, the tele- robotic system will not be able to handle that. My idea is using a CCD to track the movement of the helmet or other 4-6th degree freedom input devices and put the hand model into the real world video. Thus the trracking CCD has to be actuated by sort of servo motors.
