Control Library Modification To Improve Robot Interaction With Environment
International Conference on Intelligent Computing and its Emerging Applications(2020)
Abstract
One of the objectives of the Poppy Project is to offer a platform accessible to beginners and experts, allowing robots to be used in multiple fields, including research and teaching. During the work with Pypot, the control library in charge of controlling the Poppy robots, several limitations have been detected that are needed to be fixed. One of the most important problem related to the research work that is going to be done, is the small number of sensors that it can access. Thanks to the fact that both software and hardware are open source and the users can adjust them to their needs, a series of modifications are intended to be done on the control library, to use the humanoid robot Poppy in the research project. One of the main requirements is the capacity to use via Pypot the new sensors and actuators added to the robot. Finally, in a period of four months of work, the library got improvements in the image processing module, communication with IMU and Arduino boards, implementation of facial recognition, use of proximity sensors in simulation, use of custom motors in simulation, simultaneous execution of instructions in multiple robots, display of animations through the LCD screen, and a behavior controller that allows combining more than one functionality to create behaviors.
