ChameleonMask: Embodied Physical and
Social Telepresence using
Human Surrogates
Chameleonmask is a telepresence system
that shows a remote user’s face on the
other user’s face. While most telepresence
systems have been designed to provide a
remote user’s existence with a
teleoperated robot, the system uses a real
human as a surrogate for another remote
user.
