# Apps

RCS ships with ready-to-use applications for common operator workflows such as robot teleoperation and remote policy inference.

## Teleoperation

Use the Franka teleoperation app when you want to collect demonstrations or directly control a robot from an operator interface.

- Example guide: [examples/teleop/README.md](../../examples/teleop/README.md)
- Main script: [examples/teleop/franka.py](../../examples/teleop/franka.py)

The current example focuses on Franka teleoperation with Meta Quest 3 and GELLO-based setups.

## Inference

Use the Franka inference app when you want to run a remote policy server, for example through `vlagents`, against an RCS hardware environment.

- Example guide: [examples/inference/README.md](../../examples/inference/README.md)
- Main script: [examples/inference/franka.py](../../examples/inference/franka.py)
- Example config: [examples/inference/franka.json](../../examples/inference/franka.json)

The inference example expects a compatible policy server to already be running and explains the runtime keyboard commands and config fields in its README.
