Resources and tutorials to build vision systems for robotic applications
There are several types of LiDAR sensors: sensor designed to bring powerful 360 degrees sensing capabilities to everyone; single-point ranging module; This new sensor is part of the second category and is designed to be used for drones, UAVs, robots. … Read more →
From Amazon a sensor night vision webcam 5MP compatible with Raspberry Pi 3/2/B/B+/A/A+ From Sparkfun, the today’s deal is a longwave infrared (LWIR) thermal imaging camera compatible with Arduino and Raspberry Pi A hexapod kit with aluminum body and 3 … Read more →
The robot is called Sparter and was developed and built by Dutch start-up Cerescon in close cooperation with Dutch and German asparagus growers. The robot is for sale in a 3-, 2- or 1-row setup with a harvesting capacity of … Read more →
In recent years, have been releasing a series of LiDAR sensors in the hobby area – in other words, LiDAR sensors with low specs at a reasonable price. It is not recommended to make an autonomous car with such a … Read more →
One of my priorities is to search and identify what’s new in robotics – from sensors, motor controllers to robot kits and books. Everything that can be useful for those who’s working in the DIY area. One of the kits … Read more →
A relatively inexpensive method with good results for a robot capable of detecting the lines and the curved lines of a road is described in this project. Kemal Ficici has used OpenCV for computer vision, a Raspberry Pi 3 and … Read more →
This new breakout board from Sparkfun has a 1-millimeter resolution and around +/-5mm accuracy – which is good if you want to use the sensor to detect objects or create maps. The sensor emits a class 1 IR laser (940 … Read more →
I have this robotic arm with 6-axis and very cheap servo motors. When I bought it, I did not think I would use it to who knows what applications. I buy it because is cheap and I can control it … Read more →
YDLIDAR F4 and G4 are two LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors for environmental scanning, SLAM application… in other words, the sensors are designed for use in robot navigation. The price range is $259.00 for F4 and $419.00 for G4. … Read more →
Leishen produces LIDAR sensors with a price range that exceed $5000, making these almost inaccessible to most of us. But their focus seems to be changed with a new series of LIDAR sensors – LS01. LS01 comes in two versions … Read more →
