If you build a moving robot, it can have several inputs that measures position, speed or acceleration. Together they can give an accurate prediction of where the robot is, and where it will be in the near future. The difficult thing is to know what reading is the best. Do I have an accurate position ? Is the speed sensor showing the correct speed. Is my accelerometer accurate ? A Kalman filter handles combining several inputs and keeps track of how much you can trust each sensor. 

MRL No sound from speech.py script. The files are created in the audioFile directory but are 3kb and do not play.

Any Ideas?

If I copy the URL from the JAVA log and paste it into IE, I get audio. It seems to me the audio files are corrupt. I have tried deleting the files and letting the script recreate them but get same result.

Hi

The current version of the Speech service works very well in Engish. But if you try to use it in any other langage than English, it doesen't really work. I identified 3 different issues.

Hi all,

I will be starting on the InMoov project as soon as I have my 3D printer up and running.  I CANNOT wait!

Before that is possible though I have been building a 3D printer using ideas from all over the web.  I have decided to build it with no pre-made 3D parts (Apart from the extruder which will be a Bowden one that I will buy) and I am challenging my self to build it as cheaply as possible.  Once it is built it can then build the 3D parts to make it print at a higher quality.

hello, if you can not but you can create a separate window in MRL to draw a face robot written in Phithon MRL?

Hello,

We can change the language for speak but not for listen . So our robots can speak english, french, italian, etc ...

But they understand only english because sphinx add only english dictionnary . I thinked just edit the path for the french file in "ear.xml" but i've seen that the english dictionnary is in a jar file . So it could be a good thing to have a function " sphinx.set langage() " that search in a mrl subdirectory to find the good file and set "ear.xml" .

Hello,

I've found someting that seem interresting ; mix GSvideo with openCV to increase the speed ans allow binocular vision .

Here is what is write on a french website (http://www.mon-club-elec.fr/pmwiki_mon_club_elec/pmwiki.php?n=MAIN.OutilsProcessingGSVideoOpenCVCaptureVideox3) :

Hello, my name is kaled Alejandro Souky Ortiz. I decided to contact you because i could tell you have a strong knowledge of Arduino DUE, and i have been experience some trouble using it. I wonder if you are capable of adapting the "varspeedservo" library to the Arduino DUE board. I tried doing it through AVR studio by using the newly updates of AT91SAM3X8E micro controller. I took as reference the servo’s library for Arduino IDE beta 1.5.8, but had no luck.

Found this url here, lots of info:
