Post#08 FANUC Calibration




Hello guys.

Here is a video explaining how to calibrate the FANUC robot that is on LAR. Basically you just need to calibrate the joint position to Zero, the world coordinates will be calibrated depending on your joint coordinates. Good luck.
Here is a piece of advice. If you want to change the batteries from the robot. Do it while the console is on. This way you wont need to recalibrate the FANUC.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Until next time

Post#07 Fanuc Experiments






Hello guys.

Here it is guys. These videos will explain what I've been doing lately.
These explain which data I got from the sensors in the various tests I made, what they mean and which conclusion (right or wrong) that I took for myself. They'll also explain an idea that I had and what is the test that I'll do in order to validate it. Hope you guys enjoy it!

See ya later

Post#03 Kalman Filter Examples




Hello there.

I was supposed to have done this videos earlier but I didn't had the chance to. This week was one of harduous work (at least so far). Yesterday I had a meeting with Telmo Rafeiro, and the week before one with César. Tomorow night (I hope) I'll have the time to produce and post a little video summarizing what I've done and discovered this past few days.

Kalman Filter 1D
Kalman Filter 2D


See you in a while crocodille!

Post#02 Kalman Filters




Hello there.

This week has been one of study. Latelly I've been studying about Kalman Filters, what they are, and for what purpose do we need them. I've seen more than those two videos, and I've begun to try examples in matlab, but it's not as trivial as I thought.

In a couple of days I expect to produce a video of my own explanation of Kalman Filters, but for the time beeing I cannot do it perfectly. I'll also present what I've done in matlab in a couple of days (just need to fix a litle-huge bug).

See you later alligator

Post#00 - Presentation Day

Hello Guys. In this link you are able to download my first Lar Meeting Slide Presentation. The Lar Meetings basically are reunions between all the people that are working on LAR in order for each individual person too introduce or show what he/she is doing and what we have done so far. This was my presentation.
