I built a prototype version that attached motor propellers on to the clownfish balloon. This experiment is gain more intuition on making the gondola, and testing the speed of clownfish balloon that uses propellers. The experiment set up: Environment Temperature: 21°c Testing space: Length 138...

Finished the experiment of using bluetooth and wifi to remotely control two motors. Bluetooth + cellphone app: Wifi + cellphone app:

Markdown beginner's guide I'm exploring this Markdown recently and I found it really simple and elegent. So I would really like to share some of what I learnt with everyone. I'll keep it up to date in the future. You can also download Markdown beginner's guide.md file from my git Content W...

A cubic spline is a spline constructed of piecewise third-order polynomials which pass through a set of n control points. According to [1], a cubic spline \(S(x)\) can be defined as: \(S(x)\) is a cubic polynomial \(S_j(x)\) on [\(x_j,x_{j+1}\)], for all \(j = 0,1,...,n-1\). \(S_j(x) = a...

I finished the way point smoother optimization algorithm to replace B-spline curve algorithm to make sure the final smoother path will not collide with obstacles. The failure cases: After way point smoother optimization: Other cases using way point smoother optimization:

I used 13 maps as the testing maps and implemented my algorithm, parameters of these maps: map name size initial point coordinate goal point coordinate duty cycles warran 1108 * 1301 (740,297) (430,1013) 0.347 map 1 500 * 500 (10,10) (490,490) 0.2444 map 2 500 * 500...

To utilize different resources from different computer system, expecially under the condition that now we are in quarantine, remote connection is a useful and powerful tool that could help us to remotely access other computers, like the powerful computers in our lab. In this blog, I'm going to sha...
