Fourth Day With LEGO Mindstorm

Hey! In the lecture this morning we were introduced to robots vision. Vision is the way we know the world and it's also a powerful way to sense the world. We first heard something about the human visual system. Then we got to know different kind of camera models, technologies and color models. We also learned how to obtain dense depth marks.

Now we are again working on our TriBot. Trying to make him fit for the practical assignment.

Yeah! The first practical task is done. We had to measure the distance from the start line to the box. For the detailed description of the task read the post from yesterday. You can see on the video how our robot behaves:

Actually we achieved a measurement error of 4 cm. (196 cm instead of 200 cm)

Now we've programmed the second task. Our robot should open the garage door and enter the garage, but will it work? Let's see:

Also the third task is done. We need to move the box to go through both entries. Watch it :

We also found a solution for assignment 4. You can see it in the video below.

Actually we've also written a programm for assignment 5, but didn't have enough time to optimize it.

We also prepared our presentation for tomorrow morning. We are going to talk about the 5 practical assignments and how we tried to solve them. Tomorrow afternoon we we'll have our challenge. So we're going to give our BEST and present our super robot.
