Getting started with myrobotlab - Having problems? Ask the nice people here.

Just installed build 2023 (latest) to try testing with it.  I was looking for MrlComm.ino and friends to upload to the Arduino, but that used to be present in the resource/Arduino/MrlComm directory but there is no resources directory in teh 2023 installation either on Linux or Win10.  And a search of the directory tree for 2023 doesn't yield anything.

 

Was this an accidental omission?  I'm using the version from build 1.0.2020 which was the newest I had before downloading 2023 and at least for the servo service that one appears to be working.

Hi,

I am trying to create my own InMoov services - or at least modify the existing ones. This is because I used Mats InMoov head which works a little differently to the "standard" InMoov.

I started by creating brand new services based on InMoov - but that just produced so many errors I didn't know where to start.

Next I loaded MyRobotLab 1.0.1723 (Kraken) and that runs fine standalone - but I can't modify it.

OK,

I've gotten some help working though some of the issues I've run into, and figured out a couple of others by digging though various examples and source code, and determined that things are changing so fast that a lot of things that worked before in previous versions, no longer work (or at least not in the same way).  APIs are in flux and that makes it even more confusing for someone coming in new to MRL.

OK, since no one has any suggestons about actually changing the PID settings from the tracker.pid tab, or specifics on how to do it with the 1.0.2000 build via a Python script I've tabled getting tracking working with the latest build for now and will do some tests with the older versions of MRL that Gael mentions for InMoov and tracking or at least as close as I can get to those verions.

But I have another issue again with 1.0.2000 and setting the min / max values for the servo range.

OK, I'm getting a bit closer on Tracking with my InMoov head.  Had to do a bunch of clean up here and there but have the head back together and mounted on my new stand with the neck piston servo in the mix so I have X and Y axis movement.

I've slowed the Velocity down from the -1 max setting to see if that helps but it didn't make a big difference.

It is almost tracking objects but seems to wander a bit and then loses the object.  I've been trying to figure out how to set the PID values.

This is my InMoov (Jarvis)

I test HV2060MG servo.

Hi guys i recently tought of what i could run my robot of as the old laptop i used is getting really slow. I really like the idea of the tablet as gael does it. On the other hand the use of one raspberry pi would be benificial for my porte monnaie...

So I'd like to hear what you guys are using and maybe the main pro and cons you have faced with your choice. I would actually like to have a full functionaly robot with kinect etc in the end and also wonder what the minimum speccs would be to run myrobotlab with all services for inMoov.

I have now a movable base for my Marvin. I control my bot with MRL and an odroid xu4 but it requires a 4A 5V power source.

I know some of you use a tablet PC which has its own battery.

Thought about using a wireless connection of my main PC (W10) with the 2 Arduinos.

Anybody running such a configuration and what devices are you using?

I'm still chasing down an issue getting MarySpeech working and playing well on my Linux installation.

I saw a discussion on adding a language and it was talking about the mary/installed directory.  In that topic there was mention of copying an .xml file for the language to the ../mrl/mary/insatlled (I think they meant ../MRL base install dir/mary/installed) But there is a problem since that mary/installed directory does not exist on my installation.

In my case there appears to be an issue with the installation as I have the following directories (all empty):

Hi,

I've gotten the basics of tracking worked out thanks to help from the forum, so now on to my next quest.

I'm trying to work though speech (and speech recognition).  The examples I've found used methods that have been replaced.  For example NaturalReaderSpeech is now being use.  And there is MarySpeech, and so on.
