I would love to go to the RoboGames (is this the USA comp?) but I want to bust my robo cherry in Japan.
I just dont think the basic RN1 package can compete (or even qualify) with the bots on show at Robo-one 11. It would need a great improvement in speed and a few more DOF.

I have just seen your demo on Robot-Dreams of the knee joint. Very impressive machining and it does give a boost to performance. I love the flexible hinge.

You have given me inspiration to move forward on the design and mod side of things. I really want to look at adding rubber type seperators between load bearing/motive sections to give some sort of shock absorbtion system.

Anyway. Well done Matt and good luck in the comps.

Marcus.

I reckon that by June I should have my 2 main modes running smooth and reliable. Those modes are Performance and Battle.

June huh? Does this mean we'll be seein' you at RoboGames?

I am just starting to bring it all together. I reckon that by June I should have my 2 main modes running smooth and reliable. Those modes are Performance and Battle.

Cheers guys.

Hey DirtyRoboto! All the stuff you've been doing is great. I look forward to seeing what else lies around the corner.

Congratulations on this wonderful expansion! The washing machines here have fuzzy logic, where random behavior is programmed to avoid a basic repetitive cycle. It makes clothes brighter. It can make a robot more bright too, er... appear more intelligent. Fuzzy logic in a humanoid robot such as Robonova will make it appear more realistic, more human, more alive. Making good use of RND in the RoboBasic language is a good idea.

I got bored with the standard pose. I now have a new routine that replaces this code with an compilation of the poses I have woked on, that executes them using RND time and RND selection logic to create a more natural robot.

I can execute the cartwheel and after the move Takeshi will go into a random standard pose. If no input from the remote is seen after a random time then Takeshi will execute another random pose.
