  • Mid cover design

  • Started more detail design on the mid covers. Wrapping the cover end termination around the motor. I think I like it. Tomorrow I try to model a new bottom with same principle.  #fusion360 #k3lso #quad #quadruped #UPXtreme #design #prototype #bldc...
  • Working on a new back cover

  • Some progress on the back tonight 😊Also received the first parts for the DepthAI kit.#k3lso #quadruped #quadruped #robotics #bostondynamics #mit #cheetah #ros #design #UPXtreme #design #fusion360 https://t.co/w8T5TeDbGp
  • Outside vision test

  • Front cameras and right side camera testing outside! as one can see the right side camera overlap with front cameras at around 2m from the robot. Giving the robot a very small blindspot. #k3lso #quad #quadruped #robotics #UPXtreme #ROS #Ubuntu #MIT #realsense...
  • selfie

  • I rarely share photos of myself. But here I am and my quadruped project [K3lso]. We're getting closer, no one is more excited than me!  Thanks @UPbridge_gap & #Cubemars for the support, @NVIDIAEmbedded for the cool shirt! ...
  • 2018-03-24

  • Continued to work with brushless motors, VESC and ROS. The Differential drive works.  just order a tachometer so I can measure the RPM. For low RPM the motors are working quite good. No problem with torque, as i wrote earlier I can't even hold...
  • Software Review

  • The idea was that the controller must be ease to program, for that I used Arduino (full program available in the files section), so here are an explanation of the parts of the code that I considered more useful to understand and, of course, a general...
  • Finished!

  • So everything is done. I assembled up the bot with the battery(which adds quite a weight to the bot). I then started to run it around. But the bot isn't able to turn left or right without some forward or backward momentum. The main culprit I believe...
  • [Enlightened] Decisions on Ubuntu GUI, cont'd

  • So after 12 hours of imaging, errors, new imaging, more errors, I've come to some conclusions: Native Ubuntu desktop (at least 18.04.4) just isn't ready for the Pi 4. A clean install got Ubuntu desktop (Gnome) working, but there are large gaps in wifi...
  • Motion Trajectory Smoothing with Ruckig

  • In the last post I showed how to set up CollisionIK for my Kuka KR 16 robot arm in ROS so that it can be used to solve the inverse kinematics (IK) problem in real-time while handling singularities, collisions, and other issues. I only showed it working...
  • Let the integration begin

  • The first thing I did was checking if the inputs were correctly connected to the Arduino and if it could read them properly. So I installed the Arduino IDE on the Jetson Nano (could have done that on a separate computer) and wrote a sketch to read all...
  • GPU computer vision

  • One of the biggest obstacles for mobile robots is compute efficiency. Although desktop computers have become powerful, on robots there is a tradeoff for weight/running time/cost as you scale up the computational requirements. This is why high compute/low...
