Exercise 1:

dont_crash design: The idea was to move forward until an object is reached (0.5m within +/-45 deg) and then stop. If this object is removed, the robot should continue moving forward until it reaches another.

  1. Noise: it is there, and is slightly jittery. All objects at the height of the laser scanner are seen if they are not too far away (resulting in an inf range). If you walk near the robot, the legs look like lines that are oriented perpendicular to the robot.
  2. done
  3. yes, it works the same as in the simulation as long as the speed is low enough and the distance is high enough. ie, the robot cannot move extremely fast (ie 0.7m/s) or stop too close to an object (ie 0.3m) with the real robot.

Assignment 1:

Maze Small with optimized node locations

The nodes can be placed more efficiently by only placing nodes at places where there is a choice in directions. Numerous nodes placed one after another in a straight line require computation, but do not offer any added value to the system, since the only choice is to continue forward. In the Figure, red nodes are the start and end nodes, while dark blue nodes are the internal nodes. The light blue lines are all possible connections to follow.
