How to put simulation into the actual robot

2007-12-07T10:46:53+01:00

Hi, nice simulation. I'm watching the Microsoft Robotic Studio tutorial demo right now. If I want to make a new robot and want it to walk smoothly (without gyro), how is the flow of the design? I assume I design the structure first, then build the actual robot and record the angle of each joint. And then use the simulation to check the walking mechanism. What if it can't walk well in the simulation, trial and error? Please advice. Thanks.

Simulation

2006-09-08T17:43:01+01:00

Hi,

I downloaded the latest (Sept 6) version of your simulation, but the Robot is still lying on its back. The only change seems to be that the control panel no longer comes up. I also didn't exactly follow your comment about the mothin file.

I am very excited about this technology and about your work on this simulation. If it's not too much trouble, I would appreciate a few hints on how to get it working properly,

Thanks.
Bob

KHR1 3D Model and Microsoft Robotic Studio.

2006-08-22T04:32:19+01:00

Well in fact, i have been having troubles recently with the simulator.

So it has been progressing very slowly. I just managed to finally have the servos turn at the proper speed (before they would just have snapped from one position to another).

But there is still things i am not happy with. For example, the joints can move off axis. I don't like that at all and i am not sure how to change it.

I am also having difficulties understanding why the robot is not appearing where i want but instead falling from the sky !!

But there is progress. I will have to go through the model again because i think i might have swapped some parts around without paying attention.
And i would like to change the model so it's a bit more colored (at least black and gray for the parts.

I also want to be able to import the moves from the KHR1 files so i need to code a bit more for that.
But now that the servos are turning at the right speed i think it might be possible. I have no idea if it will react like the real robot, my guess is no.

We will see.

KHR1 3D Model and Microsoft Robotic Studio.

2006-08-15T06:15:16+01:00

Hi guys,

I have been making really good progress toward integrating the KHR1 into the Microsoft Robotic studio (At least the simulation part).

There is still some issues but it's getting close.
I used the 3D model i found in this forum and recently i have been asked by Microsoft if i could provide my work as a tutorial for their next CTP.

So my question is to whoever did the model (There is RoboSavvy ingraved in the model so i guess it's someone from the forum), Would it be ok to release it ?

I think Microsoft will deal with Kondo directly for the rights (And they must have already since there is some services for the KHR1 already).

Just to give you an idea of the current status, here is a picture.
