These keys and operations are actually performed from the following items, and Double3 is operated by remote control.
Please take a look at the end to see what kind of experience you can have with what kind of operation screen.

Move from boot

First, log in to Double3 that you want to operate from the browser.

When you select the Double3 mark you want to operate, the camera and microphone adjustment screen appears.

You don't need to do anything here, but make sure your face is clearly visible and select "Connect".

As soon as the connection is established, it will move to the screen for operating Double3.
The countless white dots projected on the ground automatically recognize the area where Double3 can run.If you move the cursor here and select it, it will avoid obstacles and start automatic driving.This is "Click to Drive".

The destination of automatic driving is displayed with a green point.
* If you want to stop while moving, select the red "Cancel" button at the top of the screen or press the "Esc key".
You can move not only by Click to Drive, but also by using the four-way controller.
・↑：Forward
・↓：reverse
・←: Turn left
・→：Turn right
You can also turn left and right by selecting the arrows on the edge of the screen.

Try moving and turning, and choose the method that suits you.
It may be easier to use Click to Drive for large movements, and use the four-way controller or screen selection for fine movements.

Screen height adjustment and tilt

Double3 is a telerobot that allows you to independently control the height and angle of the screen so that you can communicate with more reality.
For height adjustment, select the Double mark on the upper left of the screen and finely adjust the top and bottom.* Or press R on the keyboard to go up and L to go down

Tilt changes the screen angle by moving the cursor up and down the screen and selecting the arrows that appear.

The height can be moved in the range of 120 to 150 cm, and by adjusting the tilt, you can bring it closer to the human eye.The Double3, which can be adjusted to a sitting position, can naturally blend in with the situation.

Camera shooting and zoom (telephoto) camera

If you want to record the projected screen clearly as a still image, select "Camera shooting" at the top right of the screen.
An image in JPEG format will be saved to your device, similar to a screenshot.

In situations where it is difficult to see in a video, shooting with a camera is convenient because you can check it as an image with a large amount of information.
You can zoom (telephoto) by clicking while holding down the Z keyboard, mouse wheel, or Ctl key.

In this way, you can also zoom in and out from a wide angle to see distant objects.

picture in picture

Picture in Picture allows you to operate other PCs while running Double3.The screen is displayed small on the right edge, and you can do multitasking.

Double3 cannot be operated in picture-in-picture mode.In order to stabilize the main unit, it is a good idea to park it in advance.

Parking and charge dock - until the end of the call

If you select parking on the upper left of the screen, your feet will be locked and the main unit will be stable. *Parking is canceled by moving or turning.

If you do not move for a certain period of time due to a meeting, etc., park it.

When you approach the charge dog, an orange mark will appear on the screen, so if you select it, you will automatically enter the charging position.And when you press the red phone mark, the operation of Double3 is successfully completed.

You can show not only materials and websites, but also videos from YouTube and other sources, so it can be used as a communication tool with a higher ability to communicate.

Share Web Page

The website is displayed on the screen of Double3, and the other party can scroll like normal web operations and select by touching the screen. Unlike Screen Sharing, the point of utilization is that the other party can operate independently.

On-screen text

 

With On-Screen Text, you can display the characters you type and send on the Double3 screen.

Enabling Night Vision increases exposure and makes it easier to see in dark environments.This is especially useful for nighttime events.
