Description of the course • The course is a mini-project. • The students have to program robot that will execute few missions in a special domain. Robot • The project involves quite a bit of real-time programming issues, as well as interface to sensors and actuators. • The work is in 3-4 students groups, all the groups receive the same project, based in study the robot platform and perform special tasks. • The programming uses an interface that utilizes C++ language under Linux Operating System. • Groups will then compete on the special tasks near the end of the semester.

The Lab Topics in AI and Robotics- 2011

Create/ASUS install instructions • Tekkotsu application works under Linux Operating System. • The application was wrote in C++ language. • In order to install the Tekkotsu application in your laptop you need use the instructions described in the follow page: http://wiki.tekkotsu.org/index.php/Create/ASUS_install_instructions • The Tekkotsu application is installed in all computers in the lab room : -107 in the 58 building (underground). • You need to copy the relevant file into personal directory in order to execute the different tasks in the course.

Create/ASUS – Quick start • After installing the Tekkotsu in your laptop (or using those installed in the lab) , you can active the application for first time using the instructions described in the follow page : http://wiki.tekkotsu.org/index.php/Create/ASUS_Quick_Start Topics in AI and Robotics- 2011

Create/ASUS - Labs • Learn to execute the labs in the follow page: http://wiki.tekkotsu.org/index.php/Labs • This is the list of labs to execute after installing the Tekkotsu application (or this installed in the lab room): • Teleoperation and Sensor Observer • Mirage and Virtual Worlds • State Machines • Storyboard Tool • Events and the Event Logger • Reminder : after each lab and experiment you must present a brief report including your code. Topics in AI and Robotics- 2011

Experiments with the Robot • The experiments are based on platform developed by David S. Touretzky and Ethan J. Tira-Thompson in Carnegie Mellon University . • You can find the list of experiments named : “Exploring Tekkotsu Programming on Mobile Robots” in the page: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Tekkotsu/Tutorial/contents.shtml • Demos for different behaviors you can find in : /usr/local/Tekkotsu Topics in AI and Robotics- 2011

Experiments with the Robot • Introduction • On-line documentation • Files and directories • Robot safety • Behaviors • Events • Playing sounds • State machines • Motion commands Topics in AI and Robotics- 2011
