VR Based Robots May Be The Key To early Mars Settlement

SpaceVR has been working to exploring space in virtual reality for long, but the company has come out recently with a new idea -- exploring space using robots controlled from the earth and actually getting a real-world feel of space in virtual reality. The company was founded in 2015 and is currently working on providing users real space videos from Mars captured using 360-degree cameras in VR. It is run by a board consisting of a former astronaut, space enthusiasts, and scientists. While human settlement on planets such as Mars might be a far-fetched dream, exploring the planet with the help of robots operated from earth seems like a much more practical approach at least for now. While robots like Mars Rover have already explored the planet, the concept proposed by SpaceVR actually replicates movements of humans.
