Design, simulate and build a custom drone - Robohub
WEBDec 5, 2016 · A new system from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) is the first to allow users to design, simulate and build their own custom drone. Users can change the size, shape and structure of their drone based on the specific needs they have for payload, cost, flight time, battery usage and other factors.
30 women in robotics you need to know about – 2020 - Robohub
WEBOct 13, 2020 · In 2019, women still accounted for less than a quarter (23.6%) of those working in natural and applied sciences and related occupations. In these occupations, women earned, on average, \$0.76 to every \$1.00 earned by men in annual wages, salaries, and commissions in 2018. [ref Catalyst.org ]. This issue is even more pervasive and devastating if you are a person of color.

Introduction to behavior trees - Robohub
WEBAug 17, 2021 · Introduction to behavior trees. by Sebastian Castro. 17 August 2021. Abstraction in programming has evolved our use of computers from basic arithmetic operations to representing complex real-world phenomena using models. More specific to robotics, abstraction has moved us from low-level actuator control and basic sensing to reasoning about ...
3 types of robot singularities and how to avoid them - Robohub
WEBMar 2, 2016 · Wrist singularities – These happen when two of the robot’s wrist axes (joints 4 and 6) line up with each other. This can cause these joints to try and spin 180 degrees instantaneously. Shoulder singularities – These happen when the center of the robot’s wrist aligns with the axis of joint 1. It causes joints 1 and 4 to try and spin 180 ...
The Robot Academy: An open online robotics education resource
WEBMay 26, 2017 · The Robot Academy is a new learning resource from Professor Peter Corke and the Queensland University of Technology (QUT), the team behind the award-winning Introduction to Robotics and Robotic Vision courses. There are over 200 lessons available, all for free. Educators are encouraged to use the Academy content to support teaching and learning in class or set them as flipped learning tasks.
What is the best simulation tool for robotics? - Robohub
WEBJul 20, 2021 · As robotics makes more use of deep learning, simulators that can deal with data on the fly become necessary, and also a potential solution for simulation problems regarding points of contact or collisions. Rather than utilize multiple simulation methods to make a clearer abstraction of the real world in these boundary situations, the answer may ...
ROS 101: Intro to the Robot Operating System - Robohub
WEBJan 29, 2014 · ROS (Robot Operating System) is a BSD-licensed system for controlling robotic components from a PC. A ROS system is comprised of a number of independent nodes, each of which communicates with the other nodes using a publish/subscribe messaging model. For example, a particular sensor’s driver might be implemented as a node, which publishes ...
A cube that can jump up, balance, and walk across your desk
WEBDec 20, 2013 · The result is Cubli, a small cube-shaped robot, named after the Swiss-German diminutive for “cube”. As you can see in the video, Cubli can balance robustly. However, first jump-up tests showed that the stress resulting from a sudden braking of the momentum wheel led to mechanical deformations of …
