| Summary: | As autonomous driving technologies advance, the need for human-in-the-loop systems becomes increasingly critical to ensure safety, adaptability, and public confidence. This paper presents the design and evaluation of a context-aware immersive teleoperation interface that integrates real-time simulation, virtual reality, and multimodal feedback to support remote interventions in emergency scenarios. Built on a modular ROS2 architecture, the system allows seamless transition between simulated and physical platforms, enabling safe and reproducible testing. The experimental results show a high task success rate and user satisfaction, highlighting the importance of intuitive controls, gesture recognition accuracy, and low-latency feedback. Our findings contribute to the understanding of human-robot interaction (HRI) in immersive teleoperation contexts and provide insights into the role of multisensory feedback and control modalities in building trust and situational awareness for remote operators. Ultimately, this approach is intended to support the broader acceptability of autonomous driving technologies by enhancing human supervision, control, and confidence. |
