00:00.000 --> 00:18.000
Hello everyone, so I'll talk about just one, which is an open source robot that I've just built recently.

00:18.000 --> 00:24.000
It's a not-to-not-to-not-most-make-and-a-mood robot, and if you don't know what's making them wheels, you're going to see what it means.

00:24.000 --> 00:29.000
So if you're here today, you're probably going to agree with this slide, open sources call, right?

00:29.000 --> 00:34.000
We can use open source packages, we can contribute to software, and that's really great.

00:34.000 --> 00:40.000
But the issue that we have with robotics is that, open, we develop software so that it can be put on hardware.

00:40.000 --> 00:42.000
And hardware is expensive.

00:42.000 --> 00:50.000
So I was working in autonomous driving, and unfortunately they don't let you go back home with a hard-for-million dollar robots so that you can try your own thing.

00:50.000 --> 00:54.000
So I had to build my own hardware so I can try things at home.

00:54.000 --> 01:03.000
And it can be quite expensive if you check the famous total, but you have to spend at this $1,000 dollar so that you can try a few things at home.

01:03.000 --> 01:06.000
So that's why I built just one.

01:06.000 --> 01:12.000
It's probably one of the cheapest small autonomous robots that you can build right now.

01:12.000 --> 01:19.000
You can do it even cheaper, and that if you don't use the lighter, but I feel like it's a good thing to play a hand with a lighter so that you can learn what it is.

01:19.000 --> 01:22.000
And how it is different from a camera.

01:22.000 --> 01:28.000
Plus I was coming from a self-driving car that was using a lighter so it was not Tesla.

01:28.000 --> 01:31.000
So you can see the build of materials over there.

01:31.000 --> 01:36.000
You end up with a robot which is 250 dollars, which is yeah.

01:36.000 --> 01:39.000
Once again, probably one of the cheapest ones you can find on the market.

01:39.000 --> 01:44.000
This is a bunch of packages open source packages I'm using for just one.

01:44.000 --> 01:47.000
You can be controlled manually and autonomously.

01:47.000 --> 01:51.000
I've used AutoB SLAM for the autonomy for the SLAM.

01:51.000 --> 01:59.000
Now, too, very well known as well using Royce 2.Jazzy, but trying a few other alternative probably copper has maybe in the future.

01:59.000 --> 02:07.000
And for this for the data visualization, a really powerful tool that also helping you debug your data and check out your logs and things like that.

02:07.000 --> 02:19.000
This is a screenshot of you can see the folks who love UI with just one running autonomously and navigating across a very complex environment of suitcases over there.

02:19.000 --> 02:21.000
Really really nice one.

02:21.000 --> 02:26.000
I have two minutes and I can show you actually a demo of that.

02:26.000 --> 02:31.000
So this is just one.

02:31.000 --> 02:41.000
And those are mechanical tools so you can do things like that.

02:41.000 --> 02:46.000
You can basically move into all directions or take on yourself.

02:46.000 --> 02:50.000
And you can see the small light out on top of it.

02:50.000 --> 02:56.000
It's only a 2D light out so it's only collecting into this.

02:56.000 --> 02:59.000
So it's really targeted for beginners in robotics.

02:59.000 --> 03:04.000
On my repo, I explain how to install Ubuntu on your Raspberry Pi.

03:04.000 --> 03:09.000
How to install Host 2 or to install everything.

03:09.000 --> 03:12.000
So it's really targeted for absolute beginners in robotics.

03:12.000 --> 03:14.000
Check out the repo.

03:14.000 --> 03:18.000
A few ideas I have for the future, of course, doing a Docker image.

03:18.000 --> 03:22.000
Adding some wheel and colors that's going to help for SLAM.

03:22.000 --> 03:24.000
Using both the camera and the light out for SLAM.

03:24.000 --> 03:26.000
So at the moment SLAM is only using the light out.

03:26.000 --> 03:30.000
And you can combine it with cameras so it can be a bit more accurate.

03:30.000 --> 03:36.000
And working in simulation so it can be even cheaper for anyone that don't want to actually build the hardware.

03:36.000 --> 03:38.000
And that's it for me. Thanks a lot.
