[ANN] Live Robot Programming

jfabry
Hi all,

it’s with great joy that I can announce the project that my PhD student Miguel and I have been working on recently: Live Robot Programming, or LRP for short.

LRP is a live programming language designed for the creation of the behavior layer of robots. It is fundamentally a nested state machine language built with robotics applications in mind, but it is not bound to a specific robot middleware, API or OS. Have a look at one minute of LRP programming to get an idea of what it is like: http://youtu.be/4Ma8ZapBUqA

Live programming is fun, and live robot programming even more so, as it brings all the advantages of live programming to programming a robot. You get direct manipulation of a running robot, and that’s just cool beyond words. As an example of LRP on a robot, this guy was programmed in LRP: http://youtu.be/4Ma8ZapBUqA Note that you can use LRP ‘just’ for live programming nested state machines as well.

More information on LRP is available on its website: http://pleiad.cl/LRP where you can also find download instructions.

LRP is implemented in Pharo, and uses Roassal2 for the visualization of its state machines. We currently can steer the Lego Mindstorms EV3 and ROS robots, thanks to a small layer on top of the cool Pharo support that Jannik, Luc, Santiago and Noury are implementing at Douai. I am going to look into support for the Parrot AR.Drone 2.0esug in a few weeks.

Miguel will be at ESUG next week (I cannot make it), and has a talk at the IWST workshop about LRP, in the morning session. I am sure that he will also be happy to give demos of LRP if you ask him to (but sadly without a robot).

All feedback is welcome, and … have fun!

Aargh, copy-paste error. The Lego robot example is on Instagram of course :-)

Re: [Pharo-users] [Moose-dev] [ANN] Live Robot Programming

Thanks to both :-)

Daniel: Contributions from you will be certainly very welcome :-) But watch out, to be able to remote control the EV3 you also need a WiFi key, specifically the Netgear N150 (WNA1100 chipset). Only that one works, and they are getting harder to find these days :-(

Indeed, this direction is really exciting.

When I was at NDC, there were a couple of guys there that wanted to control their robot and they saw Pharo as a perfect match. With a more elaborate kit, we could have a door opener.

Cheers,
Doru

Re: [Pharo-users] [Moose-dev] [ANN] Live Robot Programming

jfabry

That sounds cool, I am interested in having LRP working with more robot middlewares / APIs. Can you pass me their details? (privately)

yes sure, this is why we use Pharo for our robots since years
but using a dynamic language  is still a difficult message to pass to the core robotics community ;-)
