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

Since I am not using te Lenovo I need to cover the hole. Needs a bit of tweaking but comng along nicely. I'll post it up to Thingiverse.

Here's some pics of the first attempts.

 

Hello, has anyone that is on seen a MRL service for running OLED displays via I2C and a follow up question has anyone written anything to use an i2c multiplexer? I am currently experimenting with the sad1306_128x64_i2c code from adafruit but would like to be able to control them from a service in MRL biggest issue I am running two OLED displays with the same i2c address, thus the need for the i2c multiplexer

Hello this is my first post, My name is Bart an I have a little problem. I designed articulating neck with 2 Y servos. But in i01.Head is only one Y servo for tracking. Is there possible to getY position from one OpenCV tracking? I write many of codes and I have always two OpenCV each one for each servo. Sorry for my english I hope that You undestand me. 3 Servo Y and 2 Servo X is for Eyes and Head Tracking.

Hi,

I get some problem with sweety's servos . They stopped to work ! I've tried the latest version of MRL with eclipse.

With an arduino duemilanove , all work as expected but with the arduino mega, i get the error "servo error servo's controller is not set" in eclipe log .

Arduino serial from mrl say :

publishMRLCommError/1
publishVersion/37
publishBoardInfo/1
publishMRLCommError/5/68/69/86/73/67/69/32/110/111/116/32/97/116/116/97/99/104/101/100
publishMessageAck/7

Hello guys, I am running the latest version of MRL. I was looking at Kwatters latest video. It looked to me that he was running a 64bit version. do we have a 64bit version? if so how do I get it.

BTW Kwatters video was vety  good.

Thanks BC 

 

Hi

I'm testing RemoteAdapter with several services. I have tested AcapelaSpeech, Arduino and Servo. I think they are worky now. I have only made very light test yet, so more testing is needed.

The service that I'm testing now is the OpenCV service. It starts up nice and I can see it on both hosts, but as soon as I start capture it fails. 

I think that the problem is that java.awt.image.BufferedImage can't be serialized. I found a note in OpenCV.java at line 111

// FIXME - don't return BufferedImage return SerializableImage always !

Hi ! What is the best ( clean ) way to control a dc motor with potentiometer ( like a DIY servo )

MRL dc motor service ( pwm commands to hbridge ) and PID

or

Dedicated arduino with Dcmotor shield and library like this : https://github.com/HobbyComponents/HCMotor 

So the commands to the dedicated Arduino are send throught I2C ( do,t know how to use this )

Thank you

The shiffman videos reminded me of the kinect sitting idle in the center of my InMoov.

I have tried to follow his examples on my PC and had some troubles making the kinect work again (driver issues) and make it run on my PC (his examples are shown on a mac) and finally succeeded with it.

Now I wonder wether I could run the power hungry image and depht analysis on my PC with Processing and send specific move commands to my bot where I run MRL on a ubuntu/odroid device.

Hello all.

I currently have only one Arduino installed. I am not currently using any of the torso functions so I would like to reassing those pins on the Nervo board to control the 4 servos for the right shoulder and bicep.At least I can move the right arm then.

Can someone tell me how to do this. I am an amatuer programmer at best so you may have to be specific with a chunk of code and telling me where to put it.

 

Thanks guys!
