<hr />
<div>Welcome to the '''[http://www.robojackets.org/ RoboJackets]''' BattleBots wiki!&nbsp;[[File:bb pic.jpg|thumb|right|400px|BattleBots team at Motorama 2018]]<br />
<br />
== Overview ==<br />
<br />
Everyone has seen BattleBots on T.V., fighting to the death in a gladiatorial-style arena in a shower of steel, sparks, and glory, and yet many people haven't the first clue about what it takes to build one! <br />
<br />
RoboJackets' BattleBots team tries to solve this, by teaching members to design and build a robot 1) robust enough to take multiple beatings, but 2) strong enough to deliver its own beatings in return. A good technical challenge that takes hundreds of man-hours and buckets of love. We have built battle-ready robots in the 120 lb, 60 lb, 30 lb, 12 lb, and 3 lb weight classes, including (based on their active weapon) drum spinners, ring spinners, shell spinners, veritical and horizontal bar spinners, sumo bots, walkers, and even the occassional wedge.<br />
<br />
We use mostly mechanical skills with some degree of electrical experience to implement our carefully CAD'ed designs, to personally manufacture the majority of our robots. Ultimately our goal is to build an awesome machine to fight one-on-one with another robot in the same weight class, all the while learning practical applications of tooling and machining, and gaining invaluable experience in the design and manufacturing process.<br />
<br />
== The Competition ==<br />
<br />
The competition consists of fights between robots in the same weight class. Competition rules place certain limits on weapon design and robot weight, for a fair contest and for the safety of the observers. For instance, entanglement weapons such as ropes or nets are prohibited along with invisible weapons such as electrical interference. This focuses the robot design on aggressive weapons designed to break apart or incapacitate the other robot, and the only limit on this type of weapon is that it is well engineered so as to not harm the people around it. The presence of these aggressive weapons forces the robots to be designed to withstand large shock loads, both mechanically and electrically. The challenge of the BattleBots team is unique in that a balance needs to be reached between defensive and offensive abilities, all while ensuring that the robot is very robust in all aspects. Even a single wire or bolt coming loose will cause defeat in an intense fight! &nbsp;This year we plan on attending two competitions, Motorama in Harrisburg, PA and Robogames in San Manteo, CA.<br />
<br />
== Meeting Times ==<br />
<br />
We meet in the Student Competition Center (Building on 14th Street). Wear closed-toe shoes and a tshirt (no long sleeves) since we will be using the shop. Bring a hair tie if needed. [[BattleBots_Carpool_Info|Carpool]]<br />

<div>Welcome to the '''[http://www.robojackets.org/ RoboJackets]''' BattleBots wiki!&nbsp;[[File:bb pic.jpg|thumb|right|400px|BattleBots team at Motorama 2015]]<br />
<br />
== Overview ==<br />
<br />
Everyone has seen BattleBots on T.V., fighting to the death in a gladiatorial-style arena in a shower of steel, sparks, and glory, and yet many people haven't the first clue about what it takes to build one! <br />
<br />
RoboJackets' BattleBots team tries to solve this, by teaching members to design and build a robot 1) robust enough to take multiple beatings, but 2) strong enough to deliver its own beatings in return. A good technical challenge that takes hundreds of man-hours and buckets of love. We have built battle-ready robots in the 120 lb, 60 lb, 30 lb, 12 lb, and 3 lb weight classes, including (based on their active weapon) drum spinners, ring spinners, shell spinners, veritical and horizontal bar spinners, sumo bots, walkers, and even the occassional wedge.<br />
<br />
We use mostly mechanical skills with some degree of electrical experience to implement our carefully CAD'ed designs, to personally manufacture the majority of our robots. Ultimately our goal is to build an awesome machine to fight one-on-one with another robot in the same weight class, all the while learning practical applications of tooling and machining, and gaining invaluable experience in the design and manufacturing process.<br />
<br />
== The Competition ==<br />
<br />
The competition consists of fights between robots in the same weight class. Competition rules place certain limits on weapon design and robot weight, for a fair contest and for the safety of the observers. For instance, entanglement weapons such as ropes or nets are prohibited along with invisible weapons such as electrical interference. This focuses the robot design on aggressive weapons designed to break apart or incapacitate the other robot, and the only limit on this type of weapon is that it is well engineered so as to not harm the people around it. The presence of these aggressive weapons forces the robots to be designed to withstand large shock loads, both mechanically and electrically. The challenge of the BattleBots team is unique in that a balance needs to be reached between defensive and offensive abilities, all while ensuring that the robot is very robust in all aspects. Even a single wire or bolt coming loose will cause defeat in an intense fight! &nbsp;This year we plan on attending two competitions, Motorama in Harrisburg, PA and Robogames in San Manteo, CA.<br />
<br />
== Meeting Times ==<br />
<br />
We meet in the Student Competition Center (Building on 14th Street). Wear closed-toe shoes and a tshirt (no long sleeves) since we will be using the shop. Bring a hair tie if needed. [[BattleBots_Carpool_Info|Carpool]]<br />

[[Category:BattleBots]]</div>Cwehmeyer3https://wiki.robojackets.org/index.php?title=RoboCup_Soccer&diff=16583RoboCup Soccer2018-06-14T03:12:42Z<p>Cwehmeyer3: </p>
<hr />
<div>The ''soccer'' program encompasses everything that happens between ''vision'' and ''radio''.<br />
<br />
==Invocation==<br />
For command-line help:<br />
<pre><br />
./soccer --help<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
All command line options except <tt>-sim</tt> and <tt>-nolog</tt> can also be changed in the GUI.<br />
<br />
If a <tt>logs</tt> directory is present in the current directory when <tt>soccer</tt> is started, it will write a log file named with the date and time the program was started. This can be disabled with the <tt>-nolog</tt> option. You typically don't need to log data during simulation.<br />
<br />
All options have defaults. If <tt>soccer</tt> is started with no arguments, it will start in a configuration suitable for competition.<br />
<br />
If no configuration file is given, <tt>soccer</tt> will read <tt>soccer-sim.cfg</tt> or <tt>soccer-real.cfg</tt> from the current directory, depending on the <tt>-sim</tt> option.<br />
<br />
The typical command line for off-line development and testing is <tt>./soccer -sim</tt>.<br />
<br />
==Operation==<br />
<br />
===Team and Field Configuration===<br />
There are two parameters that must be set before each half of a match: team and defending goal.<br />
The team (yellow or blue) can be set with the <tt>Field -> Team</tt> menu.<br />
The goal we defend, identified by its position in vision space, can be set with the <tt>Field -> Defend Goal</tt> menu.<br />
<br />
The current team is shown next to the status indicator.<br />
<br />
===Field View===<br />
The orientation of the field view can be changed in the View menu to correspond with the physical setup of the computer on a real field.<br />
<br />
Team space and vision space coordinate frames can be shown on the field with <tt>View -> Coordinate Frames</tt><br />
<br />
The field view allows you to control the simulator and manual driving:<br />
* Left-clicking on a robot drags the robot<br />
* Left-clicking away from a robot places and drags the ball<br />
* Right-clicking on a robot selects it for manual control (if a joystick is present)<br />
<br />
===Tree===<br />
The tree is automatically generated from Packet::LogFrame using Google Protocol Buffers' reflection mechanism. By default, non-repeated messages are expanded and repeated messages are not. There are options in the context menu to expand and collapse items.<br />
<br />
===Logging===<br />
There is a circular buffer of recent log data even if no log file is being created. You can use the log controls to move through this data and see the recent history of the game. The amount of log data available for instant replay is shown in the status bar.<br />
<br />
The field view and tree can show either live or historical data. All controls showing historical data have a red outline. Some controls, such as the Plays tab and the status label, only show live data.<br />
<br />
*Use the playback rate slider to move through recorded data: center is stopped, left is backwards, and right is forwards. The display stops when you start moving the playback slider or when you click on the pause button.<br />
*Use the <tt>Next Frame</tt> and <tt>Previous Frame</tt> buttons to step through data.<br />
*Use the <tt>Live</tt> button to continuously see current data.<br />
<br />
===Status Indicator===<br />
There is a status indicator in the upper right corner of the main window. Its text and color indicates the readiness of the whole system for competition. If everything is ready for a real match, the indicator will show <span style="background:#00FF00">COMPETITION</span>. Otherwise, the indicator will be red for serious system problems or yellow for configuration problems. It will never be green except when the entire system is ready to run.<br />
<br />
===Manual Driving===<br />
You must have a compatible gamepad connected for manual driving. We recommend the Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2 or its wired equivalent.<br />
<br />
Select a robot either by right-clicking on it in the field view (must be on this soccer's team) or selecting its shell ID in the <tt>Manual</tt> combobox.<br />
<br />
Controls:<br />
* Button 1 starts autonomous operation<br />
* Button 3 stop autonomous operation (manual driving still works)<br />
* The D-pad allows precise direction control at full speed<br />
* The right analog stick's X-axis is rotation<br />
* The left analog stick controls translation<br />
* Holding button 7 (lower left shoulder) lets you control the roller with the right analog stick's Y-axis<br />
* Pressing button 5 (upper left shoulder) saves or restores the current roller speed<br />
* Pressing button 8 (lower right shoulder) fires the kicker at full power when the ball is detected<br />
<br />
==Communications==<br />
Simulation and real-robot operation are essentially the same. They differ only by the type of network communication used.<br />
<br />
* Real vision and referee data uses UDP multicast.<br />
* Simulated vision data is sent as two separate copies to different UDP unicast ports on <tt>localhost</tt>. This avoids the need to configure local multicast or broadcast.<br />
<br />
See <tt>software/common/Network.hpp</tt> for details.<br />
<br />
There are provisions for two radio channels to allow two teams to play with the same hardware and software components. The radio channel is shown above the team indicator. There is currently no provision for changing channels on the robots, so this is only useful in simulation. This is an electronics (firmware) upgrade item.<br />
<br />
==Major Components==<br />
; [[World Modeling]] : Develops models of the world based on available information from multiple systems<br />
; [[Robocup StateID | StateID]] : Assigns semantic labels to game states to aid in behavior selection<br />
; Gameplay : Plays and Behaviors. Play selection and behavior definitions.<br />
; [[Motion]] : Low level robot planning and motion control<br />
<br />
; [[Robocup Play Development HOWTO]] : How to add plays to the system so they can be compiled and used<br />

[[Category: RoboCup]]</div>Cwehmeyer3https://wiki.robojackets.org/index.php?title=RoboCup_Simulator_Execution&diff=16582RoboCup Simulator Execution2018-06-14T03:12:10Z<p>Cwehmeyer3: </p>
<hr />
<div>The easiest way to get started using the software is to make use of the simulator, which will be most useful for developing much of the actual system. The first scenario will start a simulator with a single robot, and the second scenario will start two teams with referee control.<br />
<br />
All of the commands on this page assume you are in the <i>software/run</i> directory.<br />
<br />
== Single-team Simulator Use ==<br />
In this case, we will only drive one team. The other team's robots will remain stationary.<br />
<br />
=== Starting the Simulator ===<br />
<pre><br />
./simulator [-c <config file>]<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
If no configuration file is given, it will use <i>default.cfg</i> in the current directory. Currently, <i>default.cfg</i> creates two full teams.<br />
<br />
You can kill the simulator with Ctrl-C.<br />
<br />
=== Starting one team ===<br />
In another terminal, in the <i>software/run</i> directory:<br />
<pre><br />
./soccer -sim<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
The status indicator in the upper right corner should be yellow and show SIMULATION.<br />
<br />
You can now issue internal referee commands. Either use the shortcut buttons at the top of the window for the most common commands (they have tooltips) or go to the Referee tab for a complete set of commands.<br />
<br />
== Starting two teams ==<br />
Start another soccer program exactly like the first one. Don't use the referee buttons yet - the two soccers won't stay in sync.<br />
Set the second soccer to run the blue team (<b>Field</b> -> <b>Team Color</b> -> <b>Blue</b>) and defend the opposite goal (<b>Field</b> -> <b>Defend Goal</b> -> <b>Vision +X</b>).<br />
<br />
You must use the SSL referee box to control two soccers at once.<br />
<br />
If you are not connected to a network, you must add a multicast route:<br />
<pre><br />
../util/mcast_route lo<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
You can reverse this later with:<br />
<pre><br />
../util/mcast_route<br />
</pre><br />
but the route will typically be removed by your network manager when you get a real network connection.<br />
<br />
Now start the SSL referee box:<br />
<pre><br />
./sslrefbox<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
The referee buttons in both soccers should now be grayed out and the <i>Use external referee</i> checkbox should be checked. If you have previously changed this checkbox manually, you will need to check it.<br />
<br />
You can now use the SSL referee box to issue commands to both soccers at once.<br />
<br />
[[Category: RoboCup]]</div>Cwehmeyer3https://wiki.robojackets.org/index.php?title=RoboCup_Simulator&diff=16581RoboCup Simulator2018-06-14T03:11:42Z<p>Cwehmeyer3: </p>
<hr />
<div>The simulator, <tt>simulator</tt>, is used heavily for off-line development and testing. It provides the same interfaces as <tt>ssl-vision</tt> and <tt>radio</tt>, allowing <tt>soccer</tt> to run in (nearly) the same way for simulation and real operation.<br />
<br />
==Invocation==<br />
<pre><br />
./simulator [-c <config file>] [--sv]<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
The configuration file specifies the number and model of the robots on the blue team and yellow team.<br />
<br />
If no configuration file is given, it will use <tt>simulator.cfg</tt> in the current directory.<br />
<br />
* <tt>--sv</tt> causes the simulator to send data to the <tt>ssl-vision</tt> multicast address. <b>Do not use this on a competition network!</b><br />
<br />
==Limitations==<br />
* Only outputs data for one camera. Ball-occlusion simulation is still done as if there were two cameras.<br />
* No carpet effects such as loss of traction and variable height.<br />
* Only partial simulation of robot status in RadioRx packets.<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>=Bandwidth=<br />
* 90Hz cycles => 11ms period.<br />
* 250kbaud maximum. The radio can do 500kbaud with some modulation types, but we can not assume that this will be the final choice.<br />
** Raw: 347 bytes per period, less 23 bytes for VCO calibration time. 324 bytes usable.<br />
* 12 bytes overhead per packet<br />
** 4 bytes preamble (recommended by datasheet, 2 bytes minimum)<br />
** 4 bytes sync (recommended by datasheet, 2 bytes minimum)<br />
** 1 or 2 bytes padding for error correction (payload must be an odd number of bytes before padding)<br />
** 2 bytes CRC<br />
** Separate overhead for forward and reverse packets<br />
* Maximum packet size is 255 bytes, excluding FEC padding and CRC.<br />
<br />
=Configuration=<br />
Need to consider a reliable communication protocol for performing robot configuration<br />
<br />
* Radio configuration<br />
* PID loops<br />
* etc...<br />
<br />
This is not done often, but a host-side application for this would be nice.<br />
<br />
=Channels=<br />
* A small number of channel configurations (8-16?) should be stored on the robot for scanning. Would prefer EEPROM on MCU for this. Should not require JTAG flash to change these.<br />
** Channel config includes bit rate, modulation, power, etc. Everything can be configured per channel.<br />
** These *will* change during competition. Expect frequent changes during setup as other teams go online and crowd us out.<br />
** Too many possible channels to scan in an acceptable amount of time.<br />
* Each robot will scan for the host among the channels it knows on power-on and when it has received no radio data in some period of time (5s?).<br />
** Expect to wait at least 3 radio cycles (33ms) on each channel. If we miss three forward packets in a row, either the host is on another channel or the channel is unusable.<br />
* Not sure how to select a channel for standalone mode.<br />
** Use last channel assigned by host, stored on the base<br />
** Select with joystick<br />
** Clear Channel Assessment (find lowest noise among configured channels)<br />
<br />
=Scanning=<br />
Looking for robots that are turned on.<br />
* This should be done per request of the host. Most likely during a ''stop/halt'' in gameplay because we do not reverse channel data then.<br />
* Should be able to change a robot on the field without touching the computer.<br />
<br />
=Protocols=<br />
==Forward==<br />
<br />
==Reverse==<br />
Under normal operating conditions the reverse channel has several different modes of operation. <br />
<br />
# Gameplay Mode<br />
#* Slow Update: All robots are reporting back every ''nth robot'' fast loop interval.<br />
#* Fast Update: Only one robot is reporting back, but is reporting every fast loop.<br />
# Fast Engineering data<br />
# Slow Engineering data<br />
<br />
===Information Types===<br />
There are three types of information that need to come back over the reverse channel. They are in order of priority.<br />
<br />
====Gameplay====<br />
Gameplay information needs to be updated frequently and is critical to good gameplay.<br />
* Ball Presence<br />
* Capacitor Voltage<br />
<br />
====Fast Engineering====<br />
These are things that we want to know periodically, but are not updated very quickly or are not critical to gameplay.<br />
* Battery Health/Voltage<br />
* RSSI<br />
<br />
====Slow Engineeting====<br />
Items that do not change at all or change very slowly during a match.<br />
* Board serial number<br />

<div>This page houses the 2015 [http://wiki.robojackets.org/w/RoboCup RoboCup] Mechanical efforts. Mechanical tasks for the 2015 competition year can be most easily summarized as a complete redesign of the SSL fleet.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Mechanical team meets Tuesday, 6:30-9pm Sunday, 1-5pm. More hours will be announced as deadlines approach.&nbsp;[[File:Enlightenment.gif|frameless|right|Enlightenment.gif]]<br />
<p style="text-align: right"><span style="text-align: right; line-height: 1.6">&nbsp;</span></p><br />
== Background ==<br />
<br />
=== Current Robots ===<br />
<br />
<font size="2">The team has taken part in RoboCup every year since 2008*. Two different fleets of robots are used: a fleet designed in 2008, and a fleet designed in 2011. The 2008 fleet sports a solenoid powered kicker mechanism and a fixed dribbler. The 2011 fleet sports solenoid powered kicker AND chipper mechanisms, along with a fixed dribbler and encoders on the motors.</font><br />
<br />
=== Previous Issues ===<br />
<br />
<font size="2">Due to an error in the tolerances of shaft components for the 2011 fleet, the drivetrain of these robots have suffered tremendously, resulting in decayed performance of the motors. This renders mostly all 2011 robots functionally incapable. Thus, the most reliable robots have been those designed in 2008. However, the 2008 robots lack encoders, and without these sensors, this makes control of the robots significantly more challenging for the software team.</font><br />
<br />
=== Improvements ===<br />
<br />
<font size="2">Due to these challenges, it has been determined that a complete rebuild of the robots is required to continue to be competitive in the RoboCup SSL. Particular emphasis is being placed on designing passive mechanisms that aid the software team in having finer control over the robots and the ball.</font><br />
<br />
== <span style="line-height: 20.7999992370605px">Requirements</span> ==<br />
<br />
=== Primary Goals ===<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small; line-height: 20.7999992370605px">The team for the 2015 competition year has met several times to discuss the primary goals for a new fleet of robots. These requirements are outlined below, in order of highest priority to lowest priority.</span><br />
<br />
#Encoders on the motors<br />
#Robust drivetrain mounts<br />
#Damped dribbler<br />
#Lower profile solenoids<br />
#Superior traction/grip for the wheels<br />
#Robust shell design<br />
<br />
=== Secondary Goals ===<br />
<br />
The team has also considered other desired characteristics of the robots that are not necessarily competition-oriented goals. The list is below (in no particular order).<br />
<br />
#Improved tolerances for the omniwheel (previous designs have significant play in this subsystem)<br />
#Improved aesthetics for the robot shell<br />
#Ease of attachment/removal of electrical boards<br />
#Low center of gravity<br />
<br />
== Specifications ==<br />
<br />
*Ball speed after being kicked - 8 m/s<br />
*Dribbler bar speed - 8000 rpm<br />
*Compress time (time for dribbler to absorb ball's energy and compress) - .2 seconds<br />
*No more than 20% of the ball's area (seen from top view) may be occupied by the robot - a critical Robocup SSL Rule<br />

<div>This page details the efforts of the RoboJackets for the mechanical base of the 2013/2014 fleet.<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
The 2014 mechanical sub system closely resembles the 2009 fleet. Thus many of the same materials and components are used throughout the process. The main mechanical changes for the 2014 robot is an increase in the dribbler size, the creation of an actuated dribbler to allow ball dampening, and increase in the kicker and chipper boot sizes.<br />
