Congratulations! You have a whole lab full of robots running your latest software. Now you want to start looking at an overall view of your robots. It's time to build a fleet overview, and this post will show you how to use Fleet Indexing from AWS IoT Device Management to start your overview.
This post is to show how to set up the Boston Dynamics Spot SDK. It goes from installing the Python examples and connecting the robot to understanding authentication, time synchronisation, leases, and movement commands.
This post is to give you my five tops on how to stand out as a Software Engineer. These are tips that will help at any career level, not just when you're starting out.
This post is about how to build an AWS Step Functions state machine and how you can use it to interact with IoT edge devices. In this case, we are sending a smoothie order to a "robot" and waiting for it to make that smoothie.
In this post, I show the next step in making ROS2 Control work with the WaveShare JetBot - wrapping the motor control code in a System. I'll walk through some concepts, show the example repository for ROS2 Control implementations, and then show how to implement the System for JetBot and see it running.
This post shows how to build two simple functions, running in the cloud, using AWS Lambda. The purpose of these functions is the same - to update the status of a given robot name in a database, allowing us to view the current statuses in the database or build tools on top of it.
This post is about how beginners can make the most out of every tutorial by digging deep into the code to understand it. This is the best foundation you can give yourself for continuing to work on the code and making your own modifications.
This post is all about my advice on getting started as a Robotics Software Engineer. I want to tell you a little of my journey to get to this point, then what you should do to practise and give yourself the best start possible.
Learn how to control the JetBot's motors from C++ using I2C and PWM, which is the first step towards integrating the robot with ros2_control and autonomous navigation.
In this post, I'll show how to use two major concepts together:
