Overview
The goal of wviz is to provide web based visualization similar in the webgl enabled web browsers without any required plugins or additional software. wviz also allows users to view data on remote systems running ROS without requiring ROS be installed on their local machine. The goal of the wviz project is to provide visualization capabilities much like those of rviz with additional mechanisms to allow the user to control the robot.
This figure shows the currently available controllers and visualization. Some examples of data currently integrated into wviz include: video feeds, a 3-d rendering of the robot, and point cloud data.
