On 18th January 2018 the two websites “www.robot-home.it” and “myzharbot.robot-home.it” fused into the new single website “www.myzhar.com” in a new domain. Why did I make this choise? The reply is simple: on 12nd January 2018 the domain “robot-home.it” has expired and the italian maintainer, despite the renewal payment made on…
This news is not directly related to MyzharBot project, but somehow it will give to MyzharBot a big improvement. Let’s start from the beginning…
The Computer Vision is a really computational power requesting task, if you work with computer vision you know that to reach very high frame rates you need to maximize the parallelism of the algorithms and you know that massive parallelism is reachable only moving elaborations to GPUs. The embedded massive…
The 7th march Nvidia launched the new Jetson TX2. In the launch post I described the differences with the previous Jetson and how the new Jetson TX2 can double the performances of the TX1. Now it’s time to see how it really works, so let’s stop the written words and let’s…
Well, it’s been a while since I published the latest news about MyzharBot project, what’s better than starting again from a really big news? Nvidia has presented the new Jetson module, Nvidia Jetson TX2 and it’s ready to get on board of MyzharBot
The last weekend, 21-22 May, was held in Rome the annual event dedicated to robotics organized by the no profit association Officine Robotiche. For the third consecutive year I made a simple talk dedicated to artificial vision applied to robotics, to approach in a simple way the audience to this subject…
It’s been a lot since latest post… the project has not stopped, but the time is missing, so blog update is confined into limited time slots. Who follows the news on Twitter, Facebook and Youtube knows that also this year MyzharBot was demoing in the Nvidia’s booth at GTC 2016…
Making the final preparations for the participation of MyzharBot-v4 at the next conference GTC 2016 by Nvidia (San Jose, California, APRIL 4-7, 2016), I realized that it would be very helpful to have two guides for the realization of two basic operations for using the Nvidia Jetson TX1 on a…
The power connector of the carrier board of the Nvidia Jetson TX1 is really solid and well done, but the strong vibration of a tracked robot can compromise its stability, so I decided to modify it to be sure that MyzharBot-v4 has a really robust power connection.
The motors that move MyzharBot are really powerful, really too much powerful for the motor drivers mounted on the little uBridge shield used originally by the amazing uNav Motor Control board made by Officine Robotiche. For this reason Mauro Soligo (under a “very little” pressure) realized the new uNavSB carrier board that uses the…
