VR Robotics Simulator is now available in Early Access!
I am very pleased to announce that VR Robotics Simulator is ready to be released into the wild!
I built this application for my fellow engineers and robotics enthusiasts. Room scale VR is a perfect fit for building robot cells and interacting with robot arms. My goal is to make industrial robotics and automation accessible to everyone. I hope that you will join me on this journey and look forward to your feedback.
Special thanks to all the beta testers who helped get things started, and to all the people over at r/Unity3d and r/gamedev who helped me with technical and philosophical questions.
Improvements in next 3 months
| CAD importer | Importing OBJ format in real time |
| Better placement tools | Ability to manually adjust object positions to millimeter accuracy, smart snapping, better visual indicators |
| Better joint position indicators on robot | |
| Sound effects for servo motors | |
| Message display | Real-time in-scene message log |
| Additional programming features | Joint moves (e.g. J1 +45 deg), program branching, inter-arm communication |
| Better scene data | Pick and locate individual scene items form a Scene Manager window in VR |
| More robot arm models / positioner models |
