Using the RBC controller

New.gif You can download the Ruby-extension for controlling the Robobuilder here: robobuilder-0.2.tar.bz2

Here is a small example program which makes the robot get up if it's lying on its back or its front.

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'robobuilder'
require 'matrix'
class Vector
  def norm
    Math.sqrt inner_product( self )
  end
end
robot = Robobuilder.new '/dev/ttyUSB0'
puts "Robobuilder"
puts "Serial number: #{robot.serial_number}"
acceleration = Vector[ *robot.accelerometer ]
if acceleration.inner_product( Vector[ 0, 0, 1 ] ) > acceleration.norm / 2
  robot.basic
  robot.a
elsif acceleration.inner_product( Vector[ 0, 0, 1 ] ) < -acceleration.norm / 2
  robot.basic
  robot.b
end
acceleration = Vector[ *robot.accelerometer ]
if acceleration.inner_product( Vector[ 0, 1, 0 ] ) > acceleration.norm / 2
  robot.run 1
end
robot.close
