Roboquarium

In our demo, we will be showcasing remote telepresence for underwater scenarios using a VR camera and Robotic arm mounted on our lab-built underwater ROV (Remote Operated Vehicle). Viewers of the event will be able to see a 3rd person view of the platform on the stream, while using their own device to pan around the VR image live. We will be able to select members of the event who will be given the opportunity to take control of the robot’s functions from their own device.
