Once your Go2 is setup to run in full autonomy, you can get started with exploring different modes offered via OM1 and explore the functionalities. There are two ways to do this:
  1. Voice commands
  2. Via Portal

Voice commands

Step 1: Configure your API key in ~/.bashrc file and start your machine in full autonomy mode. Step 2: Start talking to your robot dog and ask it to switch to a particular mode. For example, The robot says, hi I’m your friendly robot dog, how may I help you? The user can then request the robot to switch to a particular mode by saying, switch to [desired mode].
