Upper-Body VR Control for Humanoid Robot Interaction

Configure immersive VR control capabilities that allow operators to control humanoid robot arms and hands through mapped upper-body movements.

Avatar Teleoperation — Upper-Body enables manipulation workflows, demonstrations, training, and research scenarios without requiring a full-body teleoperation setup.


Bring Human Dexterity to Robotic Manipulation

Avatar Teleoperation — Upper-Body connects operator movements with compatible humanoid robot upper-body functions through VR-based control.

The configuration enables teams to explore robotic manipulation, human-robot interaction, and skill transfer workflows by adapting existing robot capabilities for specific applications.

Training & Simulation

Record and analyze operator sessions for learning and evaluation.

Safety Requirements:

  • Controlled indoor environments with defined safety zones
  • Trained operator/instructor required at all times
  • Clear E-stop points (robot, operator, supervising operator)
  • Internet teleoperation limited to latency-tolerant tasks with network pre-qualification

Ongoing Support:

Keep Your Robotic Workflow Optimized

Futurology provides optional ongoing support to help maintain and optimize Avatar Teleoperation deployments.

Support may include:

FAQ:

1. Which robots does Avatar Teleoperation support?
Avatar Teleoperation is configured and tested for compatible Unitree humanoid platforms, including G1 U1, G1 EDU U2, and R1 EDU U2 variants.
2. Which VR headsets can I use?
Supported VR headsets include PICO and Meta Quest devices. Compatibility is confirmed during the technical review process.
3. What's the difference between local and internet teleoperation?

Local teleoperation allows the operator and robot to operate in the same physical environment and network.

Internet teleoperation enables remote operation over a network connection but requires evaluation of latency, bandwidth, and stability.

4. What network quality is required?
Network requirements depend on the deployment scenario. Futurology evaluates latency, bandwidth, and connection stability during technical review.
5. How do safety boundaries and emergency stops work?
Safety zones are configured during setup to define operating limits. Emergency stop controls remain available to the operator, supervising personnel, and the robot system.
6. Can students use Avatar Teleoperation in classrooms?
Yes. Avatar Teleoperation can support educational scenarios when operated with trained supervision and appropriate safety configuration.
7. What tasks are suitable for Avatar Teleoperation?

Suitable scenarios include:

  • Demonstrations
  • Motion data collection
  • Training
  • Research workflows
  • Telepresence
  • Controlled inspection scenarios

The system is not intended for hazardous or unsupervised operations.

8. How does session recording work?
Teleoperation sessions can be recorded for analysis, training, and research. Storage and data management depend on the customer’s infrastructure.
9. What happens if the robot or environment changes?
A technical reassessment may be required if robot configuration, firmware, hardware setup, or operating environment changes.
