When InMoov turns into a dog

When Richard Ryerson (RobotGuy6)  takes two upper InMoov body to build a dog.

Cute name: FrankenDog according to Richard.

Richard is running EZ. I was lucky to stumble on this video, because there is no mention of InMoov on YouTube.

Okay now lets see if it opens a door and dance like the Boston Dynamics dogs!

Yolo in conjonction with Ultrasonic sensor

hairygael's picture

So, I was working on a script to get Yolo starting only if an object is presented at the correct distance (1.0meter) using a Ultrasonic sensor.

This works nice.

Now is there a filter I could use to eliminate the background before Yolo analyses the picture?

@moz4r, I solved the neopixel issue by adding an extra sleep(4) at the beginning of my script.

The Meetup in Paris in my Workshop!!  (21/06/2018)

We had so much things to talk about...

It was really great to have Greg, his family, his friends in our place for a memorable moment.

Anthony, Bruno, Régis also joined the party!

Anthony got some super beers for all of us, but we forgot to drink them, so busy we were talking.

Can you believe that !!!

Kinect 360 Google Chrome and WebKitRecognition

Hello, hello, hello,
I personaly do not use the mics of the kinect, but someone on the InMoov forum is having the same issue.
So I am reporting an issue regarding using the microphone of the kinect 360 with Chrome and Webkitrecognition.
Using the Kinect360 with Windows10, SDK 1.8, MyRobotLab 2693,  gets a "no microphone found" in Chrome.
Although the kinect microphone is correctly detected and selected in Google Chrome.

Sensor and Sensitivity

Hello everyone! It's been months since I didn't log in to MRL shoutbox.
 
If I log it's because I need a little help on something that is frustrating me since last night.
I am designing a new hand with much better sensors and sensitivity. AH3503+ micro magnet 2x1mm

InMoov knee actuation

This my latest refined knee model which is running with the service DIY Servo.

I love that service by the way!! Well let say, I just love MyRobotLab!

It's incredible the evolution it has under gone since I started this project.

Before everyone starts to break it after the Manticore, I am asking Santa to implement velocity in that service to see what is smoothness of movement on payload, and if it can still control with enough power.

Remember this modele is only for standing, I'm still working on the motorized version.

Three complete robots built in 25 days

Designing, 3D printing, assembling and painting of these respectively 1.60m, 160m and 1.20m robots was done in 25 days.

I barely had nights to sleep, working alone in my work shop, I thought I wouldn't be able to accomplish the task in time.

The surface finishing with car filler on all the 3D printed parts took me a long time to get a perfect smooth finish for the paint job.

AcapellaSpeech is out of usage

hairygael's picture

AcapellaSpeech is out of usage since yesterday, due to restrictions on the demo mode.

Because we need a speaking robot, I will try to use MarySpeech service instead of AcapellaSpeech service.

So I run a simple script like this:

inmoovTest = Runtime.createAndStart("inmoovTest", "ProgramAB")
inmoovTest.startSession("ProgramAB", "gael", "inmoovTest")
mouth = Runtime.createAndStart("i01.mouth", "MarySpeech")
mouth.setVoice("cmu-bd1-hsmm")
