How to Calculate the Motor Torque for a Mobile Robot

This guide outlines how to calculate power parameters for a mobile robot and select an appropriate power system. We cover frictional and acceleration forces, wheel type, and motor parameters to design a direct-drive system with a brushless motor. With the rated voltage, speed, and torque of the motor, we calculate the required power and minimum battery capacity to power the robot successfully. This discussion is a valuable resource for designing or selecting a power system for an indoor, service-oriented mobile robot capable of carrying a payload of 20 kg and achieving a speed of 1.

Lessons Learned: The Evolution of an Undergraduate Robotics Course in

Seven years ago (2016), we began integrating Robotics into our Computer Science curriculum. This paper explores the mission, initial goals and objectives, specific choices we made along the way, and why and outcomes. Of course, we were not the first to do so. Our...

Beginners Guide to Udev in Linux – The Geek Diary

Udev is really cryptic and advanced. It is often hard to trobuleshoot if you need to. What is it? Udev is the device manager for the Linux kernel. Udev dynamically creates or removes device node files at boot time in the /dev directory for all types of devices. Udev is now part of systemd as you can see by viewing the “udev” file names included with the systemd RPM package.

The Ultimate Guide to Real-Time Lane Detection Using OpenCV – Automatic Addison

In this tutorial, we will go through the entire process, step by step, of how to detect lanes on a road in real time using the OpenCV computer vision library and Python. By the end of this tutorial, you will know how to build (from scratch) an application that can automatically detect lanes in a video stream from a front-facing camera mounted on a car. You’ll be able to generate this video below.

OpenCV: Detection of ArUco Markers

Pose estimation is of great importance in many computer vision applications: robot navigation, augmented reality, and many more. This process is based on finding correspondences between points in the real environment and their 2d image projection. This is usually a difficult step, and thus it is common to use synthetic or fiducial markers to make it easier.
