What is the role of the Teleoperations team?

The Teleoperations (Teleop) team ensures the rover's physical systems are easily controllable by a human operator. We build and maintain key systems that allow operators to command the rover and receive feedback in real time.

Base Station GUI

The Base Station GUI is a Vue.js web app that serves as the main interface for operating the rover. It:

• Captures controller inputs
• Displays GPS, camera, and sensor data
• Sends waypoints to auton
• Controls devices used in science sample acquisition

and more...

Django Backend

To support the frontend, we have a Django backend that connects to ROS via websockets. It:

• Handles all ROS callbacks
• Stores persistent data like GPS waypoints
• Computes robotic arm commands
