- General Motivation:
- Mentor's Objective:
- Preparation for RoboCupJunior eLeague demo (May 26 - June 25)
- Learn basics of Player/Stage using Prof. Parsons' AI class projects
- Create bitmaps of soccer field for Player/Stage (Robot Simulation Environment)
- Use Player/Stage to simulate a soccer game
- Develop simple behavior for soccer-playing robots (two teams of 3)
- Develop simple behavior for soccer-playing robots (two teams of 3)
- Include multiple robots (6) in Player/Stage for soccer game simulation
- Model a soccer ball in Player/Stage
- Create a model of Scribbler robot (instead of Pioneer) in Player/Stage
-
Integrate camera with Player/Stage (using Mezzanine)
(work with John Cummins on this) - Travel to RoboCup 2009
- Bridges High School Workshop (July 7-16)
- Learn RoboLab by following labs from "Exploring Robotics (CC 30.03)" course
- Help plan robotics sessions (June 16-25)
- Learn RoboLite interface to Surveyor and Scribbler robots
- Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) Robotics (after July 16)
- Dismantle USAR confined-space arena
- Create bitmap of each level of the confined-space arena and bring into Player/Stage
- Create driver(s) for Surveyor SRV-1 and Scribbler robots in Player/Stage
- After July 16
- Write a Graphical User Interface to control a Surveyor (or any other Player/Stage-capable robot)
-
Educational Robots, such as the ones mentioned throughout this project, can help researchers and students get a jump-start into the vast field of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence.
-
Develop plans for your own research projects using what you have learned about robotics, Player/Stage and
where your interests take you!
