Re: Virtual Reality 1st Person Driver?

Yes, definitely the person operating the manipulator should have the VR. Even if the driver operates the driving and manipulator, the second driver could have the glasses just to help with strategy, like for example telling the driver the robots position during a dog pile. I've been working on implementing a VR glasses and I've gotten to the point where I can get the video from the robot to the glasses but at a around 5 FPS, I have to find a better way to package the data.
