A non technical summary for muggles would be:
​
"We can virtually teleport you inside a robot that you can then operate as though you are onboard"

Initially a collaborative project with the QUT robotics club, the QUT Game Development Club and QUT Engineering students, now a private enterprise.
As a co-founder, my involvement has involved virtual design and development, physical hardware optimisation, and custom modifications with advanced electronics. The code and 3D content developed for the project has been completely original and is an exciting new way to use systems like HTC VIVE to experience Augmented (AR) and virtual/reality Blended reality environments.
​
Although currently being packaged for the 2019 QLD high school syllabus, the diversity of applications for this technology is limitless.
