(...) That's what the Kalman filter is about. One of its important application areas is navigation (from rockets to ships and robots). In our example, we try to develop the implementation for a robot driving in one only dimension, the x-axis. And (...) (12 years ago, 29-Dec-12, to lugnet.robotics)

I have a memory from attempting to use the Kalman filter, starting with a model, and working through the math, that it made some assumptions, which importantly included an originally good sensor signal subsequently clouded by noise. Kalman can (...) (12 years ago, 28-Dec-12, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Kalman Filter on the NXT
|
|
The Kalman Filter may be perceived as a discouraging, almost occult calculation method. Many do apply the filter just by following some "cooking recipes", and they don't care much about the internals. However, if the filter is well studied and (...) (12 years ago, 28-Dec-12, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi all, I'm only just now making the transition from RCX to NXT. The power of the new servos is really something. For years I've "hard-coded" my own servo code to couple a rotation sensor to a gearmotor to do setpoint-based positioning for (...) (12 years ago, 22-Sep-12, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
