Virtual reality controls the robot rover. Source: GITAIA team from GITAI Inc. is developing robotic software to synchronize human-to-humanoid robot interaction using the internet, machine learning and virtual reality.
In its latest prototype, GITAI shows how far it has come with a demonstration of a land rover robot completely controlled via virtual reality. An engineer wearing a VR headset and smart gloves gets a point-of-view look from the robot’s perspective with a VR-controlled interface with full 360 degree visual range.
The virtual reality aspect brings arms to life inside the headset while the gloves sense the motion of the user. While just a prototype for humanoid telepresence, you could easily see this technology being grafted to industrial operations, space exploration in harsh environments, bomb disposal or new gaming platforms.
