Roomba simulator part2

This video presents a dynamic simulation of a Roomba to serve as a testbed for implementation of cleaning patterns in the Chimera extension (under construction http://chimera.hoo-box.com/ ). At first the robot is briefly controlled manually via a GUI (controlling the linear and angular velocities). ...

Roomba simulation

This video presents an early version of a Roomba to serve as a testbed for implementation of cleaning patterns. The use of the simulator helps in the the design of novel cleaning algorithms that requires extra sensors (like a URG 04LX laser range finder in this video). The type, the position, and th...

Re: Run Arduino Sketch in V-rep

Hi,

If your arduino doesn t have an ethernet sheild you can not use the remote api. So you should have a look on how to read/write on a serial port on the arduino, and send /received the information you have to exchange with V-REP. On V_REP side, have look at this

V-REP tutorials

Hi guys, I found two tutorials in english on youtube that could be helpful for a start. The first one is an introduction with a bump sensor implementation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w68jmN1IBpo and the second one about how to make a Line-Following Robot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xI-ZEew...

Re: A* pathfinding

Hi! I saved the scene with a 3.0.5 in order to prevent the message to show up. The scene behaves the same way. It consists of a very simple scene where you can move around the youBot robot using its control interface (that appears when you click on the youBot). When the robots moves around, a red pl...

Re: A* pathfinding

Hi, In order to get the grid coordinates based on the robot position (i.e. its Cartesian position), you can also do xg= math.floor(x/gridSize) yg= math.floor(y/gridSize) where xg and yg are the robot s coordinates in grid space, gridSize, the size in meter of each cells, x and y re the Cartesian coo...

Re: Updating VREP

yes, you download the version and install it over the old one. I suggest you back up the whole folder where v-rep before installation.

Cheers

Re: Jaco robot arm model

Very interesting! It would be nice to do a model of this robot. Anyone interested in doing it?
But we would need at least the 3d model!
