Developer JohannesTscharn won 1st place in the open source track of LensList with an AR interface for robot navigation. Using only hands or voice, users issue move-to commands and a Unitree robot dog (stock firmware) autonomously navigates there.
- DimensionalOS powers the full navigation stack with dynamic pathing and LiDAR streaming
- UI and interactions run on Specs AR glasses
- v2.0 is in progress: VPS support (Multiset) to reduce drift beyond 5m and cleaner DimOS integration
Scobleizer reposted it as the first robot UI of its kind he'd seen, imagining controlling robots via AR glasses five years from now.
