All my robotic projects.
I developed a 3D-printed robotic hand during my studies at the Technical University of Munich. I used a 3D printer to build the mechanical parts and a Raspberry Pi Pico for controlling the motors. Background Every four years, ETH Zurich organizes the CYBATHLON competition (cybathlon.ethz.ch), in which teams from all Read more…
In this article, I present the central concept of the robot control of my mobile robot. There are many different variants to structure the software for a robot. I will show you which one I implemented in MOBROB. Direct control The simplest option is the so-called direct control. Here, a Read more…
After I presented the hardware architecture in an earlier article, I want to dedicate this article to the software architecture of my mobile robot MOBROB. The software architecture is based on Robot Operating System (ROS), which allows me to extend the robot very modularly by functions. There are a lot Read more…
With this post, I want to start with the description of the software for my mobile robot. One of the first things I’m setting up in the software is an OTA (Over the Air) update function for all my components on the robot. That means besides the Raspberry Pi, I Read more…
After a long time has passed, here is an update on the current major project MOBROB. My completely self-built mobile robot. In the last post, I introduced the basic functions. The next step is to place the complete electronics nicely on the robot, so that there is still enough space Read more…
Table of Contents Introduction Java-Application Python TCP Server on Raspberry Pi Result: Stream video from Raspberry Pi to Java-Application During the development of my mobile robot, I was confronted with the problem of how to transmit the video stream of the robots webcam to my central Java-Application. The structure looks Read more…
I started to build my first mobile robot with Mecanum Wheels a few weeks ago. In this post, I would like to show a look at the hardware structure. The software is an ongoing process and will be a topic in several future articles. Parts for the mobile robot I Read more…
In high school, I was part of my high school’s Student Engineering Academy (SIA). As part of this cooperation model between school, university and industry, I learned about many aspects of engineering. We visited different companies and were taught disciplines such as programming, design, and electronics based on a central Read more…
