This supplementary video gives an overview of the capabilities of the proposed remote web lab. It consists of three parts, first the user flow as seen in Figure 1 is shown, where by logging into the system through the website https://remrob.ut.ee the user is able to teleoperate a remote Robotont robot by running a ROS2 node. Secondly, it proceeds to show an example of how through the same web lab a user is able to control a remote UR5 manipulator by setting a target pose goal with the MoveIt motion planner, thus demonstrating that the system is not limited to any specific single robot. Lastly, it shows the system’s functionality as a potential simulation playground.
