Impressive!

Hi Dubba, I think that you'll be breaking new ground here with a 5-dof robot arm. I see a lot of interest in robotic arms and ROS on Reddit. You m...

Nope, I had no way of recording the data. My new robot will have a Micro SD card reader. I know I mentioned this before, but Elman wrote about word...

Sorry about my slow response. I noticed that the first page in this topic is trashed so I’m going to re-post some stuff from that page. This is the...

These particular sensors have a 15 deg. field of view, so no you won’t get a 360 deg view. I don’t understand what you mean by combine the output of ...

I picked up a pair of these to try out and I think that they will be fine for this robot. Tom

What I’ve done so far was more of a “proof of concept” for me. My immediate plans are to put together a purpose built robot and not cannibalize one o...

I totally agree with this one (for what it's worth). The behavior-based approach to programming robots came from the work of Rodney Brooks at MIT. ...

@robotbuilder I found a type-o in the sensor normalization formula. It should read: max sensor range - sensor1 input = sensor1 reading max...

@robotbuilder What a great question! It might be pretty straight forward to implement an obstacle avoiding Braitenberg vehicle as a neural network ...

Interesting. Back propagation needs a training set, right? Maybe you could cook up something like a Braitenberg vehicle with a neural network tha...

I was wondering about the square root too, so let’s look at some examples. Phi = V (1 - sqrt(v)) (1 - i) given that the wheel rotational speed...

Is evolution fair? LOL At first blush I thought that an individual stuck in a corner would have an activation level of 1 (the highest), so the fitne...
