Yes this is good pi 4 has to fit in but I like this once the arm gets tied in it will need a camera I would think? This might take me a minute to hook up but its a starting point now to start ros maybe I can get some video of it moving tonight with some test code by the way I think I saw the dronebot workshop repository on got hub yesterday but I didn't go in to it .
@casey
I'll try to get some video of it moving tonight with some test code I think getting the arm to work may be one of its biggest hurdles It has 4 degrees of movement ? If that is correct . the claw the elbow the wrist and a DC motor moves the lift up and down on all thread I have it on it remote for the claw and potentiometer for the rest for now but soon hopefully hooked up to the real system .thanks for posting videos ? ? .
Here's something I found...
The Mobile Robot Programming Toolkit
And in keeping with my motto, I have no idea what it does
Well there has been a lot of talk about ai pretty cool ! So I thought in the coming days I could post some of duce robots ai which I have not done or posted about ....yet the robot has voice capabilities and quite a vocabulary and even a little tude so to speak don't be surprised if you even hear it call me doctor S. Its going to take me a minute but it will be up soon! Enjoy
This method is kind of like subsumption robotics. I love it and it gives you a way to order things to be done. I used it in my GPS robot years back to keep it on task. David Anderson has a great video on this that I highly recommend.
I just finished watching David Anderson's video. Good Stuff! It was great to hear from someone that has implemented the stuff that Jones writes about.
Anderson's boundry behavior where he used virtual sensors to stay within a virtual box using odometry looked like fun. I'll have to try that one. Thanks for the post.
