Exosphere Telepresence

Description

How to configure Exosphere for remote telepresence two-way communication & remote control

Add Exosphere Robot Skill

The exosphere robot skill requires at least 1 Movement Panel and 1 camera. This allows the robot to move and see. Without either of those, the telepresence feature can't be used. Also, the PC powering the robot should have a microphone and speaker, because that allows two way voice communication.

*Remember: Your project can have as many other skills as it needs to operate. But it needs a CAMERA and Movement Panel at least.

  1. Load latest version of ARC (we recommend Early Access edition to experience the latest fixes and features)

  2. Load your robot project. Remember, it needs a CAMERA and MOVEMENT PANEL. The robot project should be working so that you can control the robot by the movement panel. Your project can have as many other skills as it needs to operate. But it needs a CAMERA and Movement Panel at least.

There's a fix in the latest ARC early access and update to the exosphere skill. They add two way telepresence audio that was apparently not working in the last version
