Linux Becomming Robot OS of Choice







Linux Becomming Robot OS of Choice

Linux Becomming Robot OS of Choice 12/06/2003 01:05 PM

Tech News World is saying that Japan's robot developers are going Linux. Japan seems to be hot place for robots and Japan is using Linux for their robots. Probably because Japan isn't scared of the mean old robots like other countries may be and probably because they need someone to take care of their elderly. These Japanese robots need an OS, and what's becomming the defacto standard is Linux. Although Windows is working other venues such as speech recognition and such, it seems Linux already has a shoe in for robots in Japan.

Following this LinuxInsider.com story, "Japan's Robot Developers Go Linux," Linux Devices decided to publish its own "Linux-po wered Robots Quick Reference Guide." And Paul Baron spent some time shooting pictures during the 2003 International Robot Exposition in Tokyo about two weeks ago. So here is a photo gallery gathered from these two different sources. You'll meet for example TMSUK04 from Meiji University, able to communicate via e-mail, or Isamu, which climbs stairs like Asimo.

A new LinuxDevices.com article by Huang Yi, of the SJTU RoboCup team, describes the third generation soccer robot that placed fifth at the most recent RoboCup competition. The robot, which runs RTLinux, uses two color camers for vision and a laser range finder for goal keeper location. The robot uses two compuers, a laptop for high level control and a TI TMS320LF2407A DSP for motion control. The article also shows the first and second generation robots that used SICK LMS scanners.

A Running Robot Or A Rolling Robot?


A Running Robot Or A Rolling Robot? 12/18/2003 12:58 PM
It took years for researchers to figure out how to make a robot be able to stand and walk on two legs. In fact, it's so complicated, that some researchers are giving up on that idea and using Segway balancing technology on their robots instead of legs. However, the folks at Sony seem to have taken the concept of the upright walking robot one step further: they've figured out how to make a robot run. That's right, it actually leaves the ground at points while jogging along. It apparently needs a bit of a walking start to get up to speed, and even at running speed, it's more of a slow jog - where it's feet barely leave the ground. Still, it's a start, and with some more work, they believe they can really make the robot run.

Drupal is our CMS of choice


Drupal is our CMS of choice 04/26/2004 07:06 PM

I've been doing my own survey of the 'platforms' out there - and we're working with Drupal.  Looks like a  winner to me.

Thanks goes out to Julian Bond for cluing me in on Drupal - a long time ago.

Now that I've met Jonas and Chris and Walkah and Adrian and Neil and Dries - we're ready to bring free open source social networking - to everyone.  Oh and God bless FOAF and danbri too.

All headed towards a PeopleAggregator module for Drupal.

Content Management Systems for alternative media.

I'm looking into systems to set up an alternative media website.

Here are a few that I found today:

The independent media center uses Mir as an Open-Source content managment system.

The Boston Indymedia Center runs on dadalMC.

dadaIMC also sports a new "license" section, allowing the author to specify a distribution license, selecting from public domain, standard copyright, or one of the Creative Commons licenses.

The Wes Clark Community Network used Scoop. Here's an interesting one, publicaccesstv.net.

H ey look, demand media runs on Scoop too!

Editor's note: Ahmad Baitalmal is the VP of IT for Etelos Systems, Inc., which is located in Issaquah, Washington. This commentary explains how and why RHN is not well-suited to his firm's needs. - It was a misty evening in Issaquah, WA, some time ago. With a brand new RedHat 7.2 installation, I had just finished moving our flagship product from an MS VB/SQL/ASP setup to PHP/PostgreSQL. The euphoria was rampant as we saw how quickly our slow pages were loading on our new platform. "Move us over dude!" said our CEO, referring to the company's mail server. The Mail move went smoothly as we left Exchange for Postfix. Everybody was set up and happy. We were dancing the victory dance, unaware of the mess that lay ahead.

Now, though, the company has announced plans to release X11 for OS X. Will Macs become the Unix workstations of choice?
