Abstract

RoboSapien is famous human like robot toy intended for playing with, of interested in, of all ages, and learning through the game, of some basic characteristics of robots and robotic control. The programming of RoboSapien as described in userâ??s manual is limited with the internal memory, battery life, and not very convenient input of actions through the multipurpose buttons of the RoboSapien IR remote control device. In order to offer better conditions for experimenting and using of RoboSapien, the web user interface was developed, that provides interactive user control, programming of command sequences of arbitrary length, observing of RoboSapien actions using the web cam that shows the movements and actions on web page. Access and control of RoboSapien by remote user through the web page user interface, is controlled by access levels depending on whether the user is logged in or not. The whole system is implemented in C# as ASP.NET project with NI USB 6501 digital I/O driving the CMOS 4066 analog switches for controlling the RoboSapien IR remote control device.

Highlights

  • INTRODUCTIONIt is shipped with small basic paper manual, IR remote control decvice, and all the rest is upon the interest and imagination of the new owner

  • The RoboSapien can do a variety of movements with arms, legs and the body, that can be combined in various interesting sequences, soon it is clear that programming is limited with the robots memory, battery life, and not very convenient input of robots actions through the multipurpose buttons of the robots IR remote control device

  • RoboSapien web system exposes most of the functions and features that can be accessed from the remote control device, to remote web users

Summary

INTRODUCTION

It is shipped with small basic paper manual, IR remote control decvice, and all the rest is upon the interest and imagination of the new owner. The RoboSapien can do a variety of movements with arms, legs and the body, that can be combined in various interesting sequences, soon it is clear that programming is limited with the robots memory, battery life, and not very convenient input of robots actions through the multipurpose buttons of the robots IR remote control device. The problem appeared, how to make the RoboSapien easier to program, how to create the programs of non limited length, where to keep those programs, and how to show it to a number of others interested in?
