In the University of Ulm's Interactive Model Railroad the user controls a model train set.  A second camera has been added to provide a closer view.

Rhino, the mobile robot tourguide, is a joint project between the Institut fur Informatik III of the Reinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universitat Bonn, and the Carnegie Melon University.    The Deutsche Museum Bonn (German Museum of Bonn) is Germany's first contemporary technology museum.  Rhino conducts tours over the internet, and the user may direct the focus of their guide's efforts.  The hours of this site are tricky, but a time schedule is available
