Ultrasound, Ping And Object Avoidancec On The Ezb-V3

Richard, would you know what script the Object Avoidance was for the v3. I have One PING unit with One sharp IR. . that's it. I just want to find that little algorythm.

I used to know this site like the palm of my hand. But, I have forgotten a lot in the last many years.

I am down to one robot, Sally. I finally scraped up enough to get some eyes. I have the voice programmed the way I want it. And, I have the base running smooth. All I need now are some avoidance so she doesn't look stupid and run into walls like me.

God Bless! :-) MovieMaker

RichR, Thanks for sharing.

A comment about my health:

I really was in bad shape and thought I was getting Alzheimer's Disease. But, I found out it was side effects from my meds. I was taken the generic brand and when My doctor switched me to the real thing, I started feeling better. I am feeling so much better now. My brain works somewhat. I still have the diabetes in a pretty much advanced state. Although I am not the sharpest needle in the hay stack, I am still a member of this community and I may need a reminder sometimes. I was once an engineer also.

Even though I have really downsized, I am still playing with electronics. I have an EZB3, and a EZB4. Right now I have the Parallax Ping/SharpIR sensor kit installed with a panning motor.

Thanks for all of your patience with me.

Thank you all for sharing! I intend to also use multiple sensors.

Some issues will be lets say tables.

If you have a very high sensor or low sensor position you may miss mid range like approaching a table.

I guess for if you are in a known same environment that is ok you can work around that issue but if you want to real world the project you need to find a different solution. Maybe LIDAR or Kinect?

Especially with something like a InMoov project where to arms can reach over 5'.

So FYI, the 3 pings are across inmoov's chest where the Kinect would have been... The centre ping facing, well obviously straight then the left facing slightly left and lastly the right with the same deal.... My script moves his head and the new waist rotate accordingly to face the person standing in front of him...
