Proj-2013-2014-RobAIR-2

Introduction

The Robair project aims to develop a platform for robotic telepresence used for both teaching ambient intelligence and testing low cost (ie well below the price of market platforms) of service robotics in real environments. This platform aims extensible and open source (open software, open hardware, open design, open data).

Progress of the project

The project started January 14th, 2013.

Week 1 (January 13th - January 19th)

• Project discovery
• Research on related projects (previous years: 2013, 2012)
• Learning of ROS: Official website

Week 2 (January 20th - January 26th)

• Learning of ROS (in progress)
• Installation of ROS packages on Ubuntu (in progress)
• Assembly of two new RobAIRs (they will be named soon...) (in progress)

Week 3 (January 27th - February 2nd)

• Assembly of two new RobAIRs (they will be named soon...)
• Beginning of the redaction of Software Requirements Specification
• ROS environment installed on Ubuntu
• RobAIR can now move by itself ! (debug in progress)
• Meeting with Amr Alyafi (effective code obtained)

Week 4 (February 3rd - February 7th)

• Integration of basic sensors (infrareds and ultrasonics)
• Debug of Amr Alyafi code (a lot of variable are written directly in the code, so it's not portative at all...)
