Sebastian’s Status Report for 3/20/21

  • Accomplishments
    • Debugged on-campus network issue for Xavier
      • For some reason, when we tried to connect to CMU-DEVICE, we could not resolve DNS or ping outside IP addresses. After many hours of debugging the only solution found was spoofing the MAC address of our dongle.
    • Integrated Joystick controller into ROS
      • Used a library node + a thin wrapper (written by me and Michael) to map controller inputs to the Roboclaw
    • Began integration of GPS on the Xavier
  • Progress Timeline
    • Our progress is on schedule
  • Next Week Deliverables
    • Work towards completing our first milestone – driving the robot with a joystick, and receive a video-feed
