Augmented Reality for ANYmal
In this project, we would like to integrate our legged robot ANYmal into Augmented (Mixed-) Reality. AR has the opportunity to more easily communicate the sensor data, internal state, and intention of the robot. The build application should run on a tablet device (IOS or Android) which can be reliably used to visualize data, and control the robot with a superior user experience compared to a classical Joy Stick and external monitor. Ideally, the application can visualize raw sensor measurements, such as point clouds, camera images, the robot configuration, contact forces, velocities, and position but also more complex data such as traversability information, semantic understanding of the environment, and a fused map representation. While a lot of work was spent within the last years on generating this data properly little emphasis was devoted to visualizing this data nicely for a human. In addition, the tablet should allow to fully control the robot (given waypoints) in a more intuitive way.
