It is constructed from aluminium and uses a few methods described earlier for high accuracy on smooth surfaces.Check out the coin test in this video: XMP-2 Practice Run &amp;amp;n</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Simulating a Robot XMP-2</title><link>https://community.element14.com/technologies/robotics/b/blog/posts/simulating-a-robot-xmp-2</link><pubDate>Mon, 23 Nov 2015 13:46:17 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:c307040c-8c2d-48b5-9a3c-d5cf29c2e445</guid><dc:creator>Problemchild</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;Excellent start there Shabaz, I see you got Gazibo working no problems. As I said it was the &amp;quot;killer app&amp;quot; for the Robot OS. I couldn&amp;#39;t get the Robot OS to build on anything other than Ubuntu&amp;nbsp; for ages and&amp;nbsp; the weird build system was annoying . Any way you have got the &amp;quot;best &amp;quot; part of it working on it &amp;#39;s own ...good one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What are you going to use for SLAM Shabaz?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;John &lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=817&amp;AppID=36&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Simulating a Robot XMP-2</title><link>https://community.element14.com/technologies/robotics/b/blog/posts/simulating-a-robot-xmp-2</link><pubDate>Sat, 21 Nov 2015 20:25:03 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:c307040c-8c2d-48b5-9a3c-d5cf29c2e445</guid><dc:creator>DAB</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;Great post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You are very correct.&amp;nbsp; Every large project I worked on we simulated hardware and software throughout the development stages to mitigate interface issues as we went.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I used to model computer architectures to make sure that the processors and networks could support the operational software.&amp;nbsp; I was able to find and correct many hardware and software issues before they became very expensive to correct.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I urge everyone to learn how to use simulations for their projects.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DAB&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=817&amp;AppID=36&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Simulating a Robot XMP-2</title><link>https://community.element14.com/technologies/robotics/b/blog/posts/simulating-a-robot-xmp-2</link><pubDate>Sat, 21 Nov 2015 07:37:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:c307040c-8c2d-48b5-9a3c-d5cf29c2e445</guid><dc:creator>balearicdynamics</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;Great Gazebo evolution !&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Enrico&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=817&amp;AppID=36&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
