you need a dihedral.
Yes! The next plane will have two separate parts for the wing, it wasn't really possible with the way we were printing it this time.
You guys are noob😅
💯
Maybe you should add some aileron/rudder twist to counter the propeller torque. Don't forget Newton's Third Law!
Haha, kinda worried about Newton's Third Law
excited to see where this project goes!
Amazing! Does this work with mono inertial? I couldn't find a folder in your github repository dealing with mono inertial.
its in the CMakeList.txt
Hey, so the problem with your soldering is that you're trying to solder a thick copper wire held with hot glue. Since the copper wire is so thick it needs a lot of heat to overcome its heat capacity, and reach the solder melting temperature, and before then it's already hot enough to melt the hot glue again. Next time try with thinner wire (I usually use the leads cut off from used through hole components) that can heat up more quickly locally, before the temperature reaches the hot glue.
That makes a lot of sense! I turned the heat up and down for certain parts, but different material would have been the play.
As long as it's something super light otherwise printing it laying flat would probably be a better option.
Sweet!
Were did you get it (the monitor)
Amazon
Respect for modeling in freecad
Wouldn't it be better to print this on its side, for strength
Stand for portable monitor is not portable….
It is?
Why not have the base and mount part be two seperate pieces so it collapses nicer for storage in a bag?
I started doing that but this was overall easier to design and print. If I'm having issues with it I'll for sure go with the two piece
Mark get a fucking wallplate for that outlet
Great update! :) Cant wait for more videos!
Great ideas for a Hacker/office space. A location where ideas grow and get built. Get more vids coming.
Thanks Bill!
dose This uses IR? if so it probably dosen't work well outside
it does use IR, but I've seen other videos of people using it outside. We'll be testing it outside on our rover in a month or 2
Hello, amazing work. I want to ask can this be applied to gazebo ? like camera in gazebo? if i know the topic of image and everything ? thank you
Yes, if you already have the correct version of Gazebo working with the corresponding version of ROS2. Although I've had issues with Gazebo in the past and have given up on it, I would like to try it again in the future.
I've found very few resources on actually connecting ORBSLAM to ROS with an output that can be used for odometry/global positioning (a nav2 stack). Can you point me anywhere?
Thats a big reason why we're working on it! You should see a lot of activity in our EASY-ORB-SLAM3 repo on github in March.
Interesting video. thank you. Any plans to use such a control from an Android device?
We've used NRF24L01+ transceivers to control it with a remote controller, but the next plans are to make it bigger and use a raspberry pi
Good job! Keep going!
Hi. Thanks a lot for the video!
I need to pick up some SG90s to do more stuff like your robot arms! What's the purpose of FS90R continuous motor over a normal motor? Besides not having to use a motor control board. Please add hardware notes to your youtube (or github? in case I am missing it) so I dont have to zoom in and squint :)
Very cool. I'm picking up some of these servos for my own rover and testing!
I love this advice
Thank you!
Nice video. I have one question about the code to control it. So, we have a publisher (laptop) and a listener (RPI). Is the entire code stored on the development machine? If not, do you write the code via SSH to storage at RPI?
The code is both on the Raspberry Pi and my Laptop, its the same exact code too! It works because both machines are running ubuntu OS with ROS2 installed. Here's the repo github.com/doeswork/stepper_motor. Both my machines are set to listen/talk to nodes over the network `export ROS_LOCALHOST_ONLY=0`. I go into a bit in this video where I install ROS2 th-cam.com/video/s7DQPL3VZfg/w-d-xo.html
@@hackertwins Ok. So, if I understood you correctly, you develop your code on the dev machine (laptop). Next, you push it to GitHub, and then you clone/(sudo apt update -> sudo apt upgrade) the repository to RPI. Next step is testing (check sensor values(gpio) and control actuators). Does it look like what I wrote?
somehow you were my third video on my homepage. This is amazing! keep up the good work!
Same!
Wow, thanks!
fourth on mine!
6th video for me... :) Hello fellow nerds
Awesome! I am stuck at the "waiting for images". I can see that the terminal outputs "one frame has been sent" but nothing appears on the actual orbslam viewer. It worked 1-2 times and since then never again. Any idea what might be wrong? And is it necessary to adjust the TUM1.yaml file at all to get some first results?
Ever so slowly move your camera on startup, it needs to build a 3D space before it opens the map
Thanks for answering! Unfortunately this also doesn't help there is still only a black screen and it keeps saying "waiting for images". I get the frames "one frame has been sent [INFO] [1705854255.607086745] [ORB_SLAM3_ROS2]: Received image at time: 1705854255" like such and can even see them in rqt_imageview under /camera topic. Do you have any other possible solutions? Thanks a lot. @@hackertwins
The shape and movement almost look like a cartoon gorilla. The velocity of the servos on the outer legs seems slower in comparison to the outer legs. This difference may cause the gait to be off. I'm glad to see progress. Keep it up!
Very cool! I always love looking for new projects. One question, though: I just built an RC car with a Raspberry Pi controlling the outputs. I encountered a similar issue with the servo twitch. Do you have any ideas on how to fix that? Thanks for the inspiration!
Usually its a bad universal ground connection, or not enough power. Check that every negative wire is connect to each other. Next add more power, even if you have to plug it into the wall just to test. Then probe voltage during operation and see if you are getting a voltage drop on the PI. You might need a capacitor or buck converter to keep raspberry pi voltage consistent.
@@hackertwins Cool! Thanks for the info. I just added a 100 uF capacitor to the circuit and that did helped with my issue. I think the spike in current is dropping the voltage through my buck converter.
I wanted to become a Robotics Engineer, thank you for encouraging me a lot
You got this!
hahaha, this is cool!
Gorilla tag
I don't understand why not just use two legs with the help of a mcu 6050 accelerometer board for balancing with a camera and opencv
In the future the outer legs will also be arms
Looks like butter bot
Great video! I'm looking to make a bipedal robot too and this is great inspiration
Awesome! Be sure to share pics/vids
I love this, I just got back into robotics, and this is inspiring! I agree that batteries and wires could be moved to contribute to center of gravity. Traction pads could help. But I absolutely love to see walking robots of any type. Most, myself included, go straight to wheels; nature didn't, so it's inspiring to see walking bots!
I hope you post videos of your robots!
Very cool! Maybe mount the batteries and SBC on the legs and lower the center of gravity? Or add weight and traction pads to the feet. Love the companion app to visualize the steps!
I've always liked the idea of batteries in the feet, but maybe they'll go in the thighs? Also, I'm super excited to finally build shoes for Tripedal!
can't wait to see your future projects using this cam
Curious if you feel this approach could replace the need for lidar in navigating an indoor warehouse space?
ORB SLAM3, as well as other stereo camera SLAM systems, have some practical advantages over LiDAR. LiDAR typically generates 2D maps and might need extra sensors for complete motion tracking. On the other hand, ORB SLAM3 can function with just a (stereo) camera and create 3D maps, which can provide a more detailed understanding of the environment. Check out our new video were we unbox an Intel D435 Stereo Camera and record in 3D!
Nice build. Just curious why add the python layer?
TBH I'm mostly a python dev, but my official answer is, "We're already using OpenCV so it makes it easier". I hereby select you to be this week's robot winner! I'll send you and email for more details.
@@hackertwins Nice yeah definitely better image processing options in Python
Soo cool 😮
Pretty cool
Didn't know this existed, this makes it so much easier 😮
it can steer?
