Adviser: Dr. Andrew Williams Working with Matt Morris and the reset of the HEIRlab team, I'm working to implement the software side of a soccer-playing humanoid robot. My job is to achieve constant communication between the robot's controller, a CM-700, and an onboard Linux Mini-PC. While normally this wouldn't be a complicated task, I have to preserve the built-in firmware so that we can utilize RoboPlus motion files, and the default firmware has no support for the kind of direct PC to controller connection we need to establish.
Once I'm finished establishing this link, I will continue to work on other pieces of the project, including high-level decision making protocols based on visual input (on the Mini-PC side) and creating the RoboPlus task files that will initiate motions based on serial inputs.
Assuming we're successful in creating a soccer-playing humanoid, I would then move on to try and adapt the control scheme of the Darwin-OP to our own robot.
