About SIM.I.AM simulator

How can I change the code to follow few way points. We give some goal points like (1,1), (0.1,0.1), (-1,0.5) .If the robot reach the point (1,1) , it should update (0.1,0.1) as his next goal point. Like that it should go through way points. thank you

Hey @chathuradimal ,

you could check out my fork of the simulator. I have not been actively working with the simulator for at least a year, but I know that I was able to add a list of way points. I will check tonight and maybe I can provide a quick fix for you.

Good luck,

[chathuradimal]

I checked your fork. If you can do it. It will be big help for me thank you.

[MarcusFutterlieb]

I am working on it. Should work either tonight (GMT+2) or tomorrow. I will also provide a small example on how to use it

[chathuradimal]

Your corporation is highly appreciated and thank you very much

[MarcusFutterlieb]

I believe the current version will let you add targets. I working on a solution to have them communicated to the robots supervisor.

[chathuradimal]

I'm waiting for your solution. I'm also trying but they are not successful thank you so much

[MarcusFutterlieb]

The target vector is now available in the supervisor of the quickbot. I will have to introduce a logic so that information is actually used, but the hard part is done.

[chathuradimal]

I'm studying your code. You spent your valuable time for me.

[MarcusFutterlieb]

The latest version should provide what you are looking for. Check out the settings file in +environments. There you should be able to add as many targets as you like

[chathuradimal]

As I understand, I can give number of points as I wish in +environment repeating "target" .That's great. Then please give me some clue what is the purpose of the "obstacles".

[MarcusFutterlieb]

Hey @chathuradimal ,

you can remove the obstacles if you like. The purpose of having them is to create a 'more interesting' environment for the robot. Going from target to target is arguable easy, if there are no obstacles in the way. Also, in real life situations, it is very likely that you will encounter obstacles.

Hello Thank you for the code. I'm trying to implement it to the week three simiam code.but it wasn't successful. How can I do that?
