1. An apparatus for remote operation of a first object by a second object comprising:
- a first plurality of sensors configured to obtain first ranging information;
a second plurality of sensors in communication with the first plurality of sensors, the second plurality of sensors being configured to be placed on the second object and to obtain second ranging information; and
a processing system configured to;
determine one or more movements of the second object from the second ranging information; and
generate one or more control signals related to the one or more movements for manipulating the first object.
