I saw some demo where a guy in Germany remotely operated a large excavator on the other side of the world. I think there will be more of these in the future.

    It would have challenges if it worked with people nearly,as then it can go south pretty quickly. However,the demo was some digging im mines,which isn't too bad if there are no peopl around.

      A lot of the huge equipment (trucks etc.) in Australian mines is already either remotely controlled or completely autonomous, precisely because there are no people around and the mines are so remote there are no surprises
