We propose a new framework for Internet-based telepresence, in which the participants collaboratively experience and effect events at a remote site.. The system combines a remote agent (the “Tele-Actor”) with distributed audience control (the “Tele-Directors”). This framework allows the remote group of Tele-Directors not only to view but to vote on commands and thereby to participate in the Tel...
