Operator Workflows
Common, generic ways operators use teleoperation. Always follow Safety and keep control human-in-the-loop.
Recover a stuck robot
Use teleop to free a robot that autonomy has stopped or flagged.
- From the Fleet page, open the robot and start Teleop.
- Confirm video, controller, and connection are healthy.
- Drive slowly to back out of or clear the obstruction.
- Reposition to a clear, safe spot, then hand control back to autonomy.
Inspect a site or asset
Use the live feeds to look around without dispatching a mission.
- Start a teleop session with the robot.
- Switch between cameras to get the angles you need — see Video streaming.
- Move gently to reposition for a better view.
- Disconnect when finished.
Position for a task
Place a robot precisely before autonomy or another operation takes over.
- Start teleop and confirm the feeds.
- Nudge the robot into the required position and heading.
- Verify placement on the Fleet page telemetry.
- Hand back to autonomy or start the planned mission.
Tips
- Keep moves short and check the result before the next one.
- If latency climbs, stop and wait for the link to recover.
- End every session with a clean Disconnect and a normal-status check.
