Level 5

I spent some more time with the micro_ros_arduino examples throughout this week. I wanted to fix some of the issues from last week and also explore the use of UDP over Ethernet, with a Teensy 4.1 and an Arduino Portenta H7 Lite Connected. I started off by re-running some of... [Read More]

This weekend, I worked on some more micro-ROS examples. This was much more fun than last time because I had a working Arduino environment and a tried and tested workflow for building and testing micro-ROS applications. By this time, I also had an extensive list of resources (bookmarks/notes) to go... [Read More]

This week I experimented with the Arduino Portenta H7, the Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect, and the RPi Pico board, and tried micro-ROS examples with ROS2 Galactic. My goal was to implement a structured workflow for building and testing micro-ROS applications using these devices on Windows 10. Unfortunately, this proved to... [Read More]

I finally got some extra time thanks to a long weekend, so I decided to bring the AKROS robot out of its box and make some upgrades. Last week, I received two Cytron MDD3A dual motor drivers which are compatible with the Teensy 4.1 Expansion board as I wanted. My... [Read More]

One of my goals for this year is to learn about ROS2 and microROS and implement them in robotics projects. However I wanted to do it differently this time around and work on Windows 10 instead of Linux. My main reason for this was to try something new as I... [Read More]
