MyzharBot will see in 3D
Today I received the sensor that will replace the double webcam to allow to MyzharBot to “see” in 3D. The sensor is the Asus XTion Pro Live. XTion Pro Live is a RGB-D sensor, namely a normal RGB camera which every pixel has depth informations. Its operation is based on…
You can officially meet MyzharBot at European Maker Faire in October!
It’s official: MyzharBot will be present at European Maker Faire in Rome since 3rd to 5th October. MyzharBot will not be alone, it will be accompanied by many of the other robots from “Officine Robotiche” that already have accompanied him to the event “Officine Robotiche 2014“. From Maker Faire website: The Maker…
Diagram of the power connections
In a few days MyzharBot will receive the PCB of the Power Distribution Board. Meanwhile I published the full diagram of the power connection of the different modules of the robot.
Video Server using Multicast is finally working
Finally, the Video Server is working using Multicast UDP protocol. There is no more limit to the number of clients that can connect to server, each client must only start binding to the correct port and can start to receive the frames asyncronously. I tested the code of the SDK…
Power Distribution board sent to PCB Service
On the wave of the success of the funding campaign on TakeOff Crowdfunding, MyzharBot is now waiting for its new board: the Power Distribution v1.0. The Power Distribution board joins the two prototypes visibile on the rear of MyzharBot into one single board providing both protection to power inversion and…
SDK modification in progress…
Before of moving the servers of the robot on the NVidia Jetson TK1 I decided that it is the time to modify the Network Architecture of the HLU. The main modification is on Camera Server and Status Server… until now they were polling servers and each client should be connected directly…
New photo gallery: NVidia Jetson TK1 mounted and powered
A new photo gallery is available: the NVidia Jetson TK1 is now mounted on the upper horizontal base and powered by the 12V generated by the programmable DC-DC converter. Now it’s time to port the software on the new board and to start to create Computer Vision algorithms!!!
New rendering: MyzharBot with NVidia Jetson TK1 and protection
A new rendering is available: MyzharBot is now at version 3.1.1. The new brain, NVidia Jetson TK1, fits perfectly on the electronics base and a transparent protection has been designed. Now its time to cut the protection with the laser machine and to mount the new brain onboard.
NVidia Jetson TK1 is “happy” inside its sandwich
Today I realized a simple Laser Cut protection for the NVidia Jetson TK1 board. Now I’m designing a plane to fix it onboad of MyzharBot 😀
