The interface server offers a web UI that hosts conversations between users and the robot. This UI supports a two-way messaging service, a view of the robot’s vision, a robot action approval system, and a means for the user to control the robot manually. This screen can be accessed at https://<hostname>:7070/views/controller.html. The interface server also offers API services that connect the robot to the coordinator.
