All About Thymio

🤖 Thymio-II is a small differential-drive robot with a large number of sensors and actuators, as shown in following figure. The robot is programmable using Aseba - an event-based architecture

🔥 It is used for group exercises and project in EPFL MICRO-452 Basics of mobile robotics, supervised by Prof. Francesco Mondada in Laboratoire de Systèmes Robotiques (LSRO)

    Most of the activities have been implemented with the Thymio educational robot. There are Python programs for some of the activities that could not be implemented on the robot. We will be happy to add implementations for other robots.

    • Programs for the Thymio robot.

    • Programs in Python.
