geo63:teleĉeesto, teleasistoI would prefer teleĉeesto. Teleasisto would have the meaning of helping remotely, telepresence is "being there remotely".
What about "defora ĉeesto"?

NJ Esperantist:I wonder if 'kvazaŭ-ĉeesto' would work.It would if I only could figure out its meaning

geo63:To me it means "pseudo-presence" which gives the wrong impression, e.g. it could be an imagined presence (e.g. when people imagine ghosts are ghosting around their homes).NJ Esperantist:I wonder if 'kvazaŭ-ĉeesto' would work.It would if I only could figure out its meaning
Telepresence wouldn't strictly be kvazaŭĉeesto since it does actually involve actual presence, but in a way that's clearly not traditional.
