DESCRIPTION:Sense of touch is said to be unique when compared to the other 
 sensors of the\n\nhuman. Action from the human and the reaction from the e
 nvironment should be\n\ntransmitted bidirectionally (bilaterally) if the t
 ouch sense to be effectively\n\ntransmitted. Dr. Abeykoon will discuss abo
 ut his research work of successfully\n\ntransmitting the sense of touch. H
 e will present examples from tele-surgery and\n\ntele-rehabilitation. He w
 ill further present about his research work related to other\n\nareas of r
 obotics including\, sound source localization\, mobile robotics and haptic
 \n\nsensing.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Harsha Abeykoon\, \n\nRoom: 128\, Bldg: Sc
