The specifications of the mechatronic system to perform master-slave operation have been defined. We are working on equipping the master tractor with RTK-DGPS based steering assistance. We successfully developed and tested the low-level wheel angle control. The high level path following control has been developed and was...

In May 2011, Aldebaran Robotics progressed on the development of the stereovision head. The prototypes of a CPU board allowing the connection of two synchronized cameras are being tested. Furthermore, Aldebaran Robotics is now developing the “face board”. This board interfaces the cameras and other devices (microphones,...

We have performed various test measurements at several places to investigate the existent magnetisable parts the in the floor. We have extended the SCITOS' control software in a way that the current magnetic data and their history can be pictured. To increase the resolution we have developed and realized a measuring hardware...
