Why

• Talk robots & related stuff.
• Keep going while we’re stuck at home.
• Make it easier for people to attend DPRG remotely.

Agenda:

• Round table – everybody spends a couple minutes telling what projects they’re working on as we’re all stuck at home
• Ad-hoc presentations – Whoever would like to show & tell.
• “Stump the club” Challenges – Ask for help if you’ve hit a roadblock in your project. Somebody in the club can probably get you pointed in a good direction – or even arrange a side bar session to help.

Note: We record a video of these sessions and post them on the DPRG YouTube channel. By joining the meeting, you’re giving consent to be included in the recording.

— Note time is 1:00 PM not the usual Noon —

On Aug 8th, 2020 starting at 1:00 PM CDT, DPRG members Ron Grant and Will Kuhnle will make a joint presentation.

Ron will discuss the real-time line following robot simulator he has authored that uses the Processing language. He will demonstrate its use and provide a brief overview of how the simulator works.

Will has used the simulator to assist with the development of his line following robot. Will will explain his approach for solving the DPRG Challenge line following course (see: Challenge LF course) and provide a demo of his progress.

A link to the simulator program (sketch) and sample line following course images from the DPRG Challenge line following course will be provided during the meeting.
