	Abstract	
    As networks such as the Internet go global, they become an important tool for everyone from engineers to the general public. This makes network-related technology an up-and-coming field. Conventional techniques should be applied for teleservice and teleoperation in global and general-purpose networks. Robots are a promising example of physical agent potentially useful via such networks in the near future. We describe direct teleoperation of a mobile robot via the Internet and experiments involving a real system and network.
