Romeo is a wonderful humanoid robot that allows researchers to study human-robot interactions. It can manipulate objects, walk around, and perform simple tasks. We have already covered the robot being teleoperated to pick up and manipulate objects. As this video shows, it is possible to use a VR headset with head tracking to get a more immersive teleoperation experience.
Must see robots & drones:
