Learn robot programming by solving several real problems in a simulated environment.
Use simulated 2D cameras to experiment with image processing and analysis algorithms.
Get point clouds from different 3D devices and use them to drive robots.
The Project
Although there is general agreement on the importance of robotics and machine vision in STEM education, many obstacles limit the quality and the extent of this part of student knowledge.
There are different hardware platforms so it is hard to define a standard curriculum and it would be expensive to equip a lab with a wide range of solutions.
There are different hardware platforms so it is hard to define a standard curriculum and it would be expensive to equip a lab with a wide range of solutions.
Hardware access is always also limited by the size of student population, so even in high-level educational systems, it is often hard to give everyone enough time for each experience.
We figured out how useful a simulation tool hosting both emulated industrial robots and emulated cameras (2D and 3D) would be, and we started to build Vostok.
