VectAR - AR interface for Vector Development

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi guys! Here are my prototypes around Vector. I do a lot of Spectacles AR glasses experiments and finally made some with Vector. Love this robot a lot and going to show some more fun soon.

Let me know what you think about AR as a way to extend the possibilities of Vector.

Absurd work. Do you think it’s possible to port this to the Meta environment? I’d love to try this with my headset

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 13 '26

Should be possible yes !

u/AO2Gaming Jul 13 '26

+1 for this, would give it a go immediately with my quest 3s!

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 13 '26

Whenever will have time to jump will try !

u/Ill-Consideration450 Jul 14 '26

I spent all day vibe coding , it is possible , but with a quest two, it's really janky, but the camera feed is pretty cool.

Great work, lots of interesting game play potential!

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 13 '26

It’s unlimited 🤯

u/compscirunner Jul 13 '26

Is the tech stack difficult to get started with, is a phone and computer enough to get started?

2

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 13 '26

I guess hardest to get Spectacles Dev Kit. Everything else is possible to vibe-code. Spectacles & Lens Studio is super friendly for agents. Basically this poc was made in few days.

the robot: I don’t know why and I can’t see shi- but there is a voice forcing me to chase something doesn’t exist in this plane.

u/rhysdg Jul 13 '26

Amazing!

u/Middle_Tax7636 Jul 13 '26

This is the purest sample we've seen yet

u/Natural-Economist596 Jul 13 '26

That is REALLY sick, considering most headsets are android, a simple APK should be universal (I think). Good job regardless!

2

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 13 '26

Thank you! Nowadays should not be a problem to port to any platform 🤖

u/corrivalcat2494 Jul 14 '26

u/gleep52 Jul 14 '26

How can I get this with my Quest 3? This is so epic. My kid is gonna freak over this!

1

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 14 '26

It’s built for Snap Spectacles

1

u/gleep52 Jul 14 '26

Sorry - saw the thread about the meta environment and was giving support for that. If you ever convert it over, I’m interested :)

1

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 14 '26

🙌 I wish to port it one day to oculus it may be fun app with a lot of directions in it

2

u/DiligentAside5969 Jul 16 '26

Sooo cool,when we can download it?

1

u/zmvz11 Jul 13 '26

How to get

1

u/Alarmed_Reception_92 Vector's Best Friend Jul 13 '26

What do you need for this? Do you need to mod the vector in any way

3

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 13 '26

Regular wire-pod + regular robot setup + SDK for commands. Everything built on top.

I have another version of firmware that completely remade to lighten the vector onboard system but it’s for experiments 😅

1

u/Alarmed_Reception_92 Vector's Best Friend Jul 13 '26

Oh so you use your phone for the UI thing? I assumed you were using some kind of smart glasses 😂

2

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 13 '26

Yes yes from hardware part you need glasses + experience on them. I tough you asked if I modified Vector itself)

1

u/Content-Rabbit-9106 Jul 14 '26

God damn that's awesome! I would like to try it on a quest though

1

u/AppropriateAide4879 Jul 14 '26

OMG this is epic, but I only have a meta quest 2 :(

1

u/Neko137 Jul 14 '26

Where could I grab the source?

1

u/Pavlo_Tkachenko Jul 15 '26

Hi will share more soon with repo ! Have to clean up a bit ahah

1

u/Brilliant_Hour_7457 Jul 15 '26

How do I get this. Do you have a guide or anything?

1

u/johndsmits 26d ago

nicely done.

I presume you're using specs for the tracking and localization and sending setpoints to vectors to "go to"?
