Virtuix Inc. (NASDAQ:VTIX), a leading developer of full-body virtual reality systems, today announced a collaboration with the University of Central Florida's Institute for Simulation & Training (IST) to demonstrate a humanoid robot steered in real time using Virtuix's Omni One omni-directional treadmill.
The collaboration shows how the Omni's 360-degree movement platform can help address a key limitation in humanoid robot teleoperation by allowing a human operator to walk and move naturally in any direction without boundaries while the robot mirrors that movement.
