GOAL
Win the competition!
HOW ?
Good planning and team work
Week 1 + Week 2
1. Installing and testing software tools
- Linux Ubuntu
- ROS
- Eclipse
- Jazz simulator
Remark:
Due to incompatibilities with Lenovo W520 (wireless doesn’t work), Ubuntu (10.04) did not work and other versions were tried and tested to work properly. All the software was installed for all members of the group.
2. Discussion about the robot operation
Targeting units:
- Maze mapping
- Moving Forward
- Steering
- Decision making
Moving forward and steering
Make choice between what sensors for straight line and what sensors for turning left/right.
Case 1 – Safer, but slower
Case 2- Faster, but more challenging
Time difference between these 2 cases is small or not? According to the simulations we will decide between Case 1 and Case 2.
Backward movement!
Because the target is to get out of the maze as fast as possible this kind of movement will be considered as a safety precaution at the end of the project whether is time or not.
Speed
As mentioned earlier the main requirement is as fast possible, hence take the maximum speed (~ 1 m/s).
Sensors
Web cam -> Identify arrows on the walls by color and shape.
Laser -> Map of the world (range ~< 6 m).
Encoders -> Mounted on each wheel -> used for odometry (estimates change in position over time). How many pulses per revolution?
3. Making planning of the work process
All the team members start reading C++ and ROS tutorials given on the wiki page of the course.
4. Had the first meeting with the tutor.
