In many real-world teleoperation applications like mining, advanced teleoperation techniques will be needed in the near future. Full telepresence provides the best possible resources for controlling a moving machine. Unfortunately, full telepresence is expensive to implement and may be technically motivated only when really needed. In this paper different complexity of telepresence systems are compared. All systems were installed on the same vehicle by using the same teleoperation system by configuring it differently. Different kinds of tasks like corridor driving, loading, etc. were performed with all systems by several users. The comparison was made by timing the executions, registering errors, and interviewing the operators.
