Mobile Robot Movement

This section explains the various methods for controlling different types of Mobile Robots currently supported by Extend Robotics AMAS.

Users can use the virtual or physical joystick to control the mobile robot.

The physical joysticks are currently only supported for the Meta Quest series controllers.

The control inputs are intuitively mapped to provide actuation in a particular axis of motion, allowing for a uniform control scheme across all the supported mobile robots.

Depending on the complexity of the drive system, the robots can locomote using a combination of linear and angular motion. The pages listed below provide more details regarding how the control inputs are mapped to the motion.
