Mixed Reality Robotics Research Team Scribby: Mirza Sikander
Overview • Mixed reality robotics • Scribbler • Calico • SECRET WEAPON • Things that I would like to do with Scribbler • Closing comments
MIXED REALITY Robotics • Mixed-reality robotics has two dimensions: virtual and physical. • Software plays a major role because it not just provides routines for the robot. It also sustains the virtual world. • Goes beyond compared to a regular software application
Scribbler: First thoughts • Two wheels support reduces complexity • Few sensors.
Scribbler: second thoughts • - Can not be extended by a great degree. • Understandable: Low Cost makes it more accessible to everyone.
Calico: Framework Designed for Computer Science Education • Impressive • They have taken inspiration from: • Alice and Scratch which provides drag-and-drop, nosyntax-errors programming environments, • DrRacket(formerly DrScheme) offers an award-winning integrated error display and logging system for Scheme”
Calico:A Multi-Programming-Language, Multi-Context environment • Main focus is to provide freedom to educators. • Ideally, educators should be free to choose the most appropriate programming languages and, independently, the most appropriate themes and contexts for their courses.
Calico:A Multi-Programming-Language, Multi-Context Environment • an interface for multiple programming languages • an interface for multiple libraries for exploring different computing contexts; • an interface for peer-to-peer communication • an integrated editor
Calico: How It works and what it provides • Uses a virtual machine • Calico incorporates a layer for language designers called the Dynamic Language Runtime (DLR). • Adding a new text-based or graphical language is a simple matter of adding a single file to the system.
SECRET WEAPON..SORT OF • Explorer: curious about trying out new technologies and new ideas • Experience with Robotics. • Patient: ability to stay calm when things break • I like to work with a team because you become exposed to variety of ideas and different angles of looking at the problems • Can work with wordpress
Conclusion:Things I would like to do with scribbler • Right now we are only looking at the tip of the iceberg in terms of what we can do with the scribbler • Calico provides a range of opportunities.: • FarseerPhysics - 2D Physics Engine (used in Graphics) • Calico Kinect - interface to the Kinect, through Kinect server running on Windows
