Due to its potential uses, telepresence promises to have a bright future. It can be used for high value operations such as deep sea mining and space operations. As remote work gains a growing acceptance and telepresence technology advances adoption is expected to increase.

One challenge to increased adoption is if highly intelligent, humanoid robots become sufficiently advanced to replace humans.Such robots might be able to conduct operations more effectively and economically than remote human operators. However, for the present, this is not the case, so expect the frontiers telepresence to continue to expand.
