- Robotic Technology
As part of the development process for a variety of robotic
missions, the Lab has developed a variety of technical systems that are freely
available for non-commercial use by students and researchers.
Distribution, adaptation and use of this technology is governed by the General
Public License.
Technologies include:
- NETROL internet-based robotic piloting software
architecture.
- RACE internet-based communications equipment control
software architecture.
- ROVNet internet-based command and data-handling
architecture for tethered robots.
- PIC-based microcontrollers and software libraries for
distributed command and data handling systems.
- Atmel-based microcontrollers and software libraries.
- Vision-based position sensing system (available in Fall
2003).
- Matlab-based toolbox for advanced robotic manipulator
analysis (available in Fall 2003).
- Matlab-based toolbox for anomaly management (available in
Fall 2003).
- Open Source Satellite archives with documentation,
mechanical/electronic CAD fabrication files, software libraries, BOMs,
test/verification protocols, etc. for simple university-class small
satellites (available in Fall 2003).
For information on access to and use of these technologies,
please contact Prof.
Kitts.
