Continued development of the COGS robot/IoT app
Goals for development:
- Improved UI
- Manual control of the robot
- Hololens/controller support because why not lmao
- Performance/Technical improvements for robot code
- https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1y5YldhejCxli3OsclVsJHRM1_rwA8AplMalSf0d_6Xk/edit?usp=sharing
- To prepare the workshop, see the link here. Note that the files here might be a bit outdated and its probably a better idea to reprepare the workshop files
Tested with Unity 2018.2.16 installed with Vuforia 7.5
Installed with both Vuforia and Android Build Components
Each release includes both an APK to test out the project and a zip file of starter code to work through the workshop
- Ensure that Unity is installed with Android Build Components
- In the player settings, uncheck AndroidTV support
- Follow the instructions for Building here: https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/topics/mobile-touch/building-your-unity-game-android-device-testing?playlist=17138
- I used Unity's internal build system instead of gradle, it shouldn't really matter though.
- I used a Particle photon to control the robot
- To build the robot, mostly follow this guide https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZbvWbrLAp_iHPgDpoouUpZCBtnHmlw-4PE3RyQugldU/edit
- I didn't use the photoresistors, but otherwise every thing is the same. Motors and ultrasonic sensors are both plugged into the digital ports on the photon. See code definitions to get specific ports used.
- Use
git clone -recursive https://github.com/ubcemergingmedialab/VuforiaIoT.gitto get the robot code
