My problem is that the hemisson will not respond to move() and translate() calls either from the command line or through a brain. However, when I load the Bbsquare example brain, the hemisson is able to follow the behavior based controls for movement, although it has very jerky movement. Also, When I load the OS from the K-team website, the sensors on the hemisson no longer respond, in addition to the movement issues. Finally, the move and translate calls worked fine when we first got the hemisson, before we began swapping OS. At the time we had Pyro 4.6 (the sensors did not work, but updating Pyro fixed that). Also, at the same time as using pyro with hemisson, there was also experimenting being done with the demo package, for the hemisson, from the road narrows website. I?m thinking that with all the OS swapping and different software packages being used on our hemisson there?s some sort of conflict that?s preventing the hemisson from properly executing the move and translate calls. -- Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org) Debian Project (http://www.debian.org) From dblank at brynmawr.edu Sun May 7 21:02:44 2006 From: dblank at brynmawr.edu (Douglas S.

It could be a timing issue. Try this at the terminal window: pyrobot -g tty -r Hemisson When Pyro starts up, enter the following: ========================================================= Pyrobot, Python Robotics, (c) 2005, D.S. Blank http://PyroRobotics.org Version 4.8.2 ========================================================= pyrobot> robot.move(.5, .5) Does it move? Can you give other commands? This is a slightly better way to debug such issues because the tty gui does not run in a separate thread to query for the robot's position 10 times a second. If this works, then you may be normally swamping the communication between the robot and computer. Let us know, one way or another. Also, maybe Robin or Kim from Road Narrows may have some ideas. -Doug -- Douglas S.

Are there fixes that you would recommend when running through the gui? I know that based on the recent messages here regarding the hemisson sensors, etc., Long did eventually get a brain to do obstacle avoidance, although with the timing issues, the robot ran into the wall for a while before backing up. He should be sending a note soon (he got rather swamped with finals).

Or rather, if it is a swamping of commands problem, would it matter? The brain i have running, is a simple if then , going through most of the sensors. What happens, running the regular pyro interface, when i 'run' the brain, it goes through several cycles before hemisson responds, once a sensor is tripped, hemisson will again go through several cycles before responding. It seems that hemisson is able to tell pyro that a sensor is tripped each cycle, but wont listen to pyro's commands. Wouldn't the communication behave the same both ways? I've attached the code avoid_05-15-06.py Other things i have noticed with hemisson, or rather our hemisson, is that the translate command cannot run values greater than 0.8 in magnitude, and that the move(x,y) command cannot run commands with |x| + |y| being greater than 0.8. Also, the specifications for the hemisson state it has 8 light sensors, 6 ir sensors and 2 line tracing sensors. Are the ir and line tracing sensors the subsets that make up the light sensors? I am unable to make the light sensors respond in pyro, only the ir sensors, which are 8 in number, when 'view'ing in pyrobot, i assumed that the 2 line tracing sensors ( ir[6] and ir[7]) were included under the ir device. Finally, i cannot get the line tracing sensors to respond in order to have hemisson do actual line tracing under pyro control, there is no difference in response between black background and white background. Seems like I'm ?swamping? everyone with my questions, thank you for all the help.

Could someone please tell me how can I define a maximum translational and rotational speed for my robot. I found that using a value of translate(1) caused the robot to move a value 0.1 in the actual simulated world. I don't understand how Pyrobot Simulator translates the -1 to 1 scale of all movement commands (tranalate, rotate, move, motors) to actual robot speeds to be used in the simulator. Even a link to a webpage explaining things such as scaling, world coordinates and such for Pyro would be great. 2) I can't seem to start a TkSimulator window from my program code. The program runs and gives output in the debug window but the graphical window shows up and stays blank as if its lagging behind and unable to redraw the window. I tried using the Engine() function to load everything as explained in the evolutionary algorithm module but that kept giving me a Waiting for PyroSimualator... error which from one of the posts I read here seems to have someting to do with sockets. Here is the basic code I used to test this: sim = TkSimulator((441,434), (22,420), 40.357554, run = 0) sim.addBox(0, 0, 5, 5) sim.addBox(0, 4, 1, 5, "blue") sim.addBox(2.5, 0, 2.6, 2.5, "green") sim.addBox(2.5, 2.5, 3.9, 2.6, "green") sim.addRobot(60000, TkPioneer("YellowRobot", 4.99, 1.32, 6.28, ((.225, .225, -.225, -.225), (.175, -.175, -.175, .175)), "yellow")) sim.robots[0].addDevice(PioneerFrontSonars()) sim.robots[0].addDevice(PioneerFrontLightSensors()) YellowRobot = Simbot(sim,["localhost", 60000], 0) e = Engine() e.robot = YellowRobot e.loadBrain("SimpleBrainProgram") for i in range(250): e.robot.update() e.brain.step() sim.step(run=0) sim.update() print "Position: %.5f, %.5f" % (YellowBee.x,YellowBee.y) def myquit(): e.shutdown() import sys sys.exitfunc = myquit the brain only has a simple translate(0.5) command in the step() function. __________________________ Stops spam 100% for your email accounts or you get paid. http://www.cashette.com From dblank at brynmawr.edu Wed May 17 17:26:06 2006 From: dblank at brynmawr.edu (Douglas S.

First, Player, Stage, and Gazebo don't run under Windows (at least I haven't ever run them under Windows... if someone has binaries, please share). Next, not every robot will run with every server. Under Windows, you want to use the PyrobotSimulator with the PyrobotRobots. Under Linux, you can use either PyrobotSimulator, or use StageSimulator with the PlayerRobots. Also, you do not need to email the authors multiple times. We all read the pyro-users mailing list, and multiple posts won't speed up our response.

I had Pyro happily installed on a FC4 system, and made some nice work, involving connecting my python-brains to java code, etc... but my cpu-power was too low, so i upgraded to new hardware. Now my problem is that FC4 doesn't detect some of my new hardware: mouse, network and audio (stupid me not to think about it!) and since i'm no linux guru i do not know how to solve this. So i tried Suse 10.1, that seems to detect everything, but again, i'm not able to install pyro. I tried to manually install the packages, but there are dependency issues that i cannot solve. So my questions are: should i buy some old hardware and try FC4 again, or should i try forcing pyrobot into suse? Is there any guide or similar thing about how to install pyrobot on different distro?

We are working on making all of our programs work with it, and have Pyrobot, Player, and Stage working. I would try that second. I'd try the following first, though. The main Pyro code doesn't have very many dependancies, just: python python-imaging python-numeric tkinter and can easily be built from scratch. After you have the above packages, just get from CVS and type "make" in the directory: cd /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ # or wherever it is cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@compscitest.brynmawr.edu:/cvs login cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@compscitest.brynmawr.edu:/cvs co pyrobot cd pyrobot make That should work on most distributions. -Doug > Every suggestion (even "good-sense" one) will be very accepted, thanks > > Bye > > Francesco Grandis > > _______________________________________________ > Pyro-users mailing list > Pyro-users@emergent.brynmawr.edu > http://emergent.brynmawr.edu/mailman/listinfo/pyro-users > From wil at netcat.it Sat May 20 07:16:52 2006 From: wil at netcat.it (wil) Date: Sat May 20 07:16:57 2006 Subject: [Pyro-users] Installing on other distro In-Reply-To: <51912.68.34.179.248.1147955104.squirrel@webmail.brynmawr.edu> References: <446C63D5.20106@netcat.it> <51912.68.34.179.248.1147955104.squirrel@webmail.brynmawr.edu> Message-ID: <200605201316.53013.wil@netcat.it> > The main Pyro code doesn't have very many dependancies, just: > > python > python-imaging > python-numeric > tkinter > > and can easily be built from scratch.

As a few things had to change for FC5, we decided to upgrade all those pending items. Chief among those were support for the newest Player/Stage/Gazebo (which aren't quite ready yet themselves.) There are some notes here: http://pyrorobotics.org/?page=PyroInstallation in section 1.3.1. Some of those items have been fixed, but we don't have Pyro talking to Player yet. Probably next week. Also, you can search the archives using google or gmane: On google, search for: "site:emergent.brynmawr.edu/pipermail pyro-users" and other keywords. On Gmane: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.science.robotics.pyro.user and use the search at the bottom. -Doug > warn: > worldfile > /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyrobot/plugins/worlds/Stage/tutorial.world:25 > : property [gui_boundary] is defined but not used (worldfile.cc > WarnUnused) > > then: > > Stage driver creating 3 devices > /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyrobot/plugins/worlds/Stage/tutorial.cfg:14 > error: unknown interface: [position] > error : Initialization failed for driver "stage" > error : failed to parse config > file > /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyrobot/plugins/worlds/Stage/tutorial.cfg > > I searched the mail archive (even though it's not very "searchable" :/ ) > but did not find anything similar.

I think i'll wait and see. Anyway I've never heard of Gmane before... i think i'll bother any of you much less from now on :) Francesco dblank@brynmawr.edu wrote: > Currently, the version for Fedora Core 5 is under development.

It seems that the stage worlds located in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyrobot/plugins/worlds/Stage need updating, since i cannot use them from pyrobot. I can rather use the worlds located in /usr/local/share/stage, much more recent. I'm using pyrobot 4.8.5 from cvs, player/stage 2.0.1, on FC4-i686. I think this should be fixed, if it's not a fault of mine.
