Robot manipulation through teleoperation requires some ability from a human operator. This requirement is stronger when the tridimensional scene is observed through a 2D monitor. This paper describes a telemanipulation aiding system based on the superposition of a position correction component to the manual orders given by the human operator, through his gestures. This correction will enable the slave arm to move quicker when it is far from the target, while moving slower and more precisely when it operates close to the target, thus, the system behaves as if an external attraction force appear around the possible objects to be manipulated.
