TeleVuer

The TeleVuer library is a specialized version of the Vuer library, designed to enable XR device-based teleoperation of Unitree Robotics robots. This library acts as a wrapper for Vuer, providing additional adaptations specifically tailored for Unitree Robotics. By integrating XR device capabilities, such as hand tracking and controller tracking, TeleVuer facilitates seamless interaction and control of robotic systems in immersive environments.

Currently, this module serves as a core component of the xr_teleoperate library, offering advanced functionality for teleoperation tasks. It supports various XR devices, including Apple Vision Pro, Meta Quest3, Pico 4 Ultra Enterprise etc., ensuring compatibility and ease of use for robotic teleoperation applications.

Install

cd televuer
pip install -e .
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem

Test

python _test_televuer.py 
# or 
python _test_tv_wrapper.py

# First, use Apple Vision Pro or Pico 4 Ultra Enterprise to connect to the same Wi-Fi network as your computer.
# Next, open safari / pico browser, enter https://host machine's ip:8012/?ws=wss://host machine's ip:8012
# for example, https://192.168.123.2:8012?ws=wss://192.168.123.2:8012
# Use the appropriate method (hand gesture or controller) to click the "Virtual Reality" button in the bottom-left corner of the screen.

# Press Enter in the terminal to launch the program.
