If you’ve not played with it yet, go ahead and download it. When that is done, I want to create a behaviour that will solve the maze when it’s done traversing it all and plot the fastest route back to the start. Up next is a behaviour that will change the robot’s course, depending on the obstacles it faces. The cruise behaviour uses PID and the heading info from the compass to maintain a specific course.

The area scanning behaviour is triggered by the position tracking behaviour and will scan right, left and in front and update the data of the current tile. The position tracking doesn’t try to get control of the robot, it only serves to, well, keep track of the current position in the maze and change the pointer to the current tile.

When it’s working and I’m happy with it, I will put the level and source code up on my blog, of course. It’s not done yet but it’s a LOT of fun to play with. I prefer to use the overhead camera view because I currently have pretty bad vertigo, so fast moving 3D stuff makes my stomach turn. It’s a simple maze crawler using the Mammal Bot in my home made maze. So what have I been doing with it? I’ve been playing with Subsumption using a modified version of Tom Roach’s Behaviour Framework for ROBOTC. You get cool medals for each milestone, which you can then brag about. Teachers can keep track of their students’ progress. If you use the standard levels, you can login to the CS2N (Computer Science Student Network) site and keep track of your achievements. I haven’t really played with that, so I can’t tell you what it’s like, exactly, but the tables look cool and pretty challenging! Once they get the multi-player stuff integrated in the standard RVW program, you could even battle it out against another team in another part of the world! They model the whole thing in RVW, so you can practice certain moves without needing to set everything up. You can use RVW to practice FTC tables as well. There are even some underwater ones that you can navigate through using the AnemoBot (see right), which looks like a little sub marine! There are tonnes of pre-made ones that you can download from the ROBOTC site. If you look at the bottom left of the screen, you can see the maze level I made. There is also a range of VEX robots, which I won’t get into now. I am a big fan of the Mammal Bot, it looks cool and it has all the sensors in the places I want them to be. Here you can see the start up screen if you pick “NXT” as your virtual platform and use the Level Builder: No fear, though, there are several models to play with. When you build your own, you can make it however you like it, in RVW, you’re “stuck” using the models the designers have made for you. RVW allows you to play with robots without actually requiring your to build one first. You can even make your own levels (which is what I did). There are many different world or levels that you can play with. RVW is a 3D virtual robotics system made by Robomatter, which allows you to program and control several different robot models, using ROBOTC. If you’ve never played with that before then let me take a second to explain it.

The ROBOTC Development team is proud to announce that ROBOTC 3.50 for the LEGO Mindstorms, VEX Cortex and PIC, Arduino, and Robot Virtual World platforms is now available! The new ROBOTC 3.50 update is free-of-charge for ALL existing ROBOTC 3.0 license holders.I’ve been dabbling with Robot Virtual World (RVW) worlds a bit lately.
