Robot control panel

In the lower right is the virtual joysticks / admittance panel. This panel consists of a group of five
buttons. Three are to launch pop-up windows for virtual joystick controls and admittance mode
toggles

•

 Cartesian Virtual Joystick

•

 Angular mode control

•

 Admittance controls

The virtual joysticks allow you to control the movement of the robot without the use of a
physical controller.

Admittance mode lets you to move the robot with your hands in one of three (Cartesian, joint,
and null space) admittance modes.

In the same area there are two other controls:

•

 Play action - play a selected action

•

 Camera feed - view camera feed

Clicking on one of the buttons in the robot control panel will launch a smaller window from the
bottom of the screen, revealing the selected control panel.

Clicking the same button again will clear the smaller window at the bottom.

Snapshot tool

The snapshot tool gives the ability to capture a "snapshot" of a robot pose. This is a useful
feature to help with building pre-set sequences (for demos or to capture / program a fixed set of
movements). There are three types of snapshots:

•

 Cartesian pose

•

 Joints pose

•

 Gripper pose

The snapshot tool is available at the bottom on all pages.

 Robot control panel

 Cartesian virtual joystick control

This section describes the Cartesian virtual joystick control interface of the 

Web App.

The Cartesian virtual joystick panel allows users to control the position and orientation of the

 

end effector through the 

Web App

 using a mouse (on laptop or desktop computer) or touch

 

control (on a tablet or smartphone).
