Abstract


The R&D project Ego Secundus (ES) is a practical and usable implementation of telepresence for a new type of interpersonal and remote communication. Known technologies are exploited and optimized, while existing deficits are remedied by adding supplemental components. It envisions the creation of a system that enables global use by the lay person over the Internet with standard IT technologies. Ego secundus acts as a userâ??s â??second ego
