rosbridge in action: OTL Telepresence Robot

One of our favorite videos using of rosbridge comes from the Open Technology Lab. OTL created a homemade telepresence robot where users on the Internet only need their web browser to control and see the camera feed from a remote robot. As shown in their video, this works seamlessly across devices (such as an iPhone) that have modern web browsers.

It is also great to see rosbridge appear in some of their other projects

We definitely recommend checking out the OTL blog for their incredible robot projects. It is awesome to see rosbridge and other contributions (such as ardrone_brown) from brown-ros-pkg show up in these projects.
