This paper discusses the necessary considerations and adjustments that allow a recently proposed avatar system architecture to be used with different robotic avatar morphologies (both wheeled and legged robots with various types of hands and kinematic structures) for the purpose of enabling remote (intercontinental) telepresence under communication bandwidth restrictions. The case studies reported involve robots using both position and torque control modes, independently of their software middleware.
