You don’t need to travel to get a realistic impression of what the ECHORD++ RIFs in France, Italy and the UK offer.  Just step into the 360° videos of our Robotics Innovation Facilities (RIFs) and decide what you want to see.

Whether it is the Rethink Robotics Baxter Robot or a 6 axis industrial robot with integrated force/torque sensor, a large twin arm gantry robot with payload capacity of 200kg per arm, an advanced high transparency 6 DOF robot, wearable sensors for physiological parameters or a fully equipped 200 m2 apartment representing future assisted living environments  – you decide what you want to see, as the video plays.

Thousands of VR video lovers have already experienced the 360° ECHORD++ Lab Tours on http://veer.tv/vr/ECHORD. Watching videos on VeeR does not require to own a headset, videos can easily be enjoyed in 2D mobile mode by moving your smartphone.
