MobotWare Project Ideas

In row navigation with laserscanner

Create a plugin for laser server so robots can follow rows in fields.

MobotWare User Interface

Continue the work started by Thomas Parkhøi

Thomas Parkhøi wrote the BSc Thesis Robot mission manager GUI with sugguestions for updating the UI for the hako client.

These updates should be finished and tested.

MobotWare for LegoMindstorms NXT

Create a firmware for Legomindstorms so it is possible to program them using SMRCL and/or a highlevel controller program connect to the mindstorm via Bluetooth.

  • Firmware for running SMRCL
  • Drives for the sensors
    • Both native Lego sensors and third party sensors.

The mindstoms could then also be used as a simulation tool for the Hako or other robots.

ROS/Mindstorms/MobotWare

There is a ROS-NXT pack that uses a lot of interesting functions. It could be cool to control the mindstoms with a combination of ROS and SMRCL.

Plugin based MRC

Change/update the MRC so it is plugin-based like the rest of MobotWare. Fx. Motioncontroller so it is easier to implement different kinematic modules.

SMRCL IDE/Debugger

The idea is to write a script and execute with rhd/mrc/stage. It should have the debug functions:

  1. step in to
  2. step over
  3. breakpoint
  4. run to breakpoint
  5. run
  6. pause
  7. stop
  8. feedback on variables

use scintilla as editor, functions for editor:

  1. SMRCL syntax highlighter
  2. autocomplete
  3. code snippets

load scripts from files would also be a good idea.

maybe just syntax highlite for Notepad++/gedit plus below

maybe as a ide for eclipse - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/tutorials/os-ecl-commplgin1/

Debugger/Program tester

Include debugger where you can test differnt commands

A GUI program where you can select the commands, create a script and chose when to execute each command.

Simulation

Include default configs for simulating with MobotWare

SMR-CL interpreter for ROS

Make it possible to control all Frobomind robots with SMR-CL.

Manual For MobotWare

Create a manual so alot of people can use MobotWare, and also create plugins for it.

Keep the sourcecode closed but open the API for plugins.

Implement MobotWare on Hortibot,…

and maybe other robots at SDU
