VR Robo Dog Teleoperation Demo - Unitree Go2 Quadruped & Stereolabs Real-Time Spatial Mapping
Short demo of the VR teleoperation and real-time spatial mapping capabilities of the "Virtual Remote Control of a Semi-Autonomous Quadruped Robot Dog Pack" project. This demo encapsulates the work continued from the GTRI 2024 summer internship project as part of independent research (conducted by Austin Graves at Georgia Tech under Dr. Jeffery Hurley between Fall 2024 and Spring 2025) to migrate the project to a Unitree Go2 and Stereolabs ZED camera-based platform. Teleoperation was performed with high-level WebRTC commands to reduce project complexity. Issues encountered included texture application problems when mapping for extended periods, long delays during texture application to spatially mapped meshes, unreliability in video streaming from the Jetson AGX Orin to Unity, and camera tracking issues. These issues could be mitigated or resolved in the future with additional debugging and optimization efforts.
