Controlling Humanoid With VR Goggle And Paddles/Gloves Score 1408
We are trying to make a few experiments related to VR controlled robots. So if it is possible to have some interface through which JD humanoid robot can perform actions like grab, move, or throw some object, we will be really grateful. A human controller should be able to control JD with VR goggles like HTC Vive and hand movements with paddles or other VR gloves. The ARC software just provides a head movement feature. So we will be able to explore more use cases if a customized Unity scene is provided. Thanks.
Want to see this feature happen? Like it to increase the score.
All Open VR controllers - including valve index for individual fingers, etc... It's been requested a number of times on the forum but before the feature request existed.
You're right - the Unity isn't necessary for the end user
I did some stuff with Unity where servo positions are being send to ARC...but this is just personal use, no idea about all the licencing stuff!!
Hello everyone, thank you very much for all your input and helping me understand more on this. Now, I have much better clarity on these aspects and I believe we don't really need a Unity scene to control JD humanoid robot. I have edited the wordings of the feature request now. However, as DJ sure has correctly pointed out, an extended feature that provides a way to control JD with VR goggle and controllers like paddles (e.g., HTC Vive) or VR gloves (e.g., Manus VR) etc. will be really of great help.
Okay - you can still do that now in the meantime using wiimote controllers. See the virtual reality skill referenced a few times in this thread.
you can use what’s available now until the controllers are supported
