From MATLAB code to mixed reality robot simulation

MR Robotics bridges algorithm development and immersive robotics. Researchers write trajectories in MATLAB, convert them in the browser, and experience the same motion on virtual KUKA robots in mixed reality on headset or mobile AR.

Close the gap between robotics algorithms and spatial experience

Traditional robotics coursework often stops at plots and offline analysis. MR Robotics connects that work to an interactive mixed-reality lab: write motion in MATLAB, convert it through a guided web workflow, then see and inspect the resulting robot behavior in the physical space around you.

MR Robotics Lab Demo

Virtual KUKA robots on real desks, collision feedback, and headset demos — the destination of the converted trajectories.
