Team AVATAR-HUBO is striving to trailblaze the “future of work” by building a humanoid that uses haptic feedback, VR tech, and advanced algorithms to allow anyone to possess the body of a functional robot without losing touch of the innately human factor of working. An Avatar enabled individual, gains the ability to control the robot’s body, see what the robot sees, and feel what the robot feels. Thus, one can transcend their body and control another, all in a streamlined and intuitive way.
