I have progressed in my project to the point that, if I tell JD to find the "red ball", he scans the area around him (turning his head left and right ) until he finds the "red ball". My next step is to have JD turn so that the ball is straight ahead of him (in the center grid). I am hoping not to have to reinvent the wheel if someone has done this. I have seen the servo tracking videos but they do not seem to be any help. I have some ideas, and if no one has done this yet, I will try them. I am also open to any ideas. (I have already seen the forum entry on "kicking the ball"). Any help?
Check the box in the camera control to enable movement tracking. Blue question mark tells more. The robot program has additional details. Have fun :)
Ps, here’s the manual for the camera device: https://synthiam.com/Tutorials/Help.aspx?id=80
i would love to see this.will you post a video on how you did this?
DJ Sures, I tried the movement tracking and it is almost what I need, but not quite. JD moves his head to search for the object and I can't seem to get him to turn towards the object while also rotating his head back to neutral (center). I guess I'll have to roll my own. I assume you wrote the primitives for the motion tracking, any tips before I take the plunge?
Again, look into movement tracking. Not motion. The word movement is different than the word motion :). Movement tracking will control the movement panel. The camera device has info on that. Also, you can click and read what a Movement Panel is.
Disable servo tracking if movement tracking is enabled. You’d only have both enabled for a special case.
The robot program episodes I listed above explain more. Have fun!
