Holistic Operational Reality for Unified Systems
Mixed-reality interfaces for multi-robot visualization, teleoperation, tasking, and collaborative control.
HORUS is a research platform from the RICE Laboratory at the University of Genoa. The project studies how operators supervise robot teams in mixed reality, from single-operator multi-robot management to multi-operator co-located and private-workspace collaboration.
