           <li style="margin-bottom: 8px;">No additional software integration</li>
           <li style="margin-bottom: 8px;">fully backward compatible with existing UR force control programs</li>

Alternatively, it is possible to use the ROS2 integration of the sensor and robot. The following example controllers are included:

- **Teleoperation** - Impedance control with haptic feedback
- **Hand Guidance** - Admittance control that allow the user to guide the robot by hand
