I love the transition into the py for more industry standard robotics development! Keep up the amazing work!

Just so you know, versions of the pi after the original b don't need those i2c wires for the touchscreen. They are already routed over the DSI cable.

so cool to see things coming like this together. congratulations and thanks!

Now that's a badass remote! Endless possibilities, Nice work!

James every single episode: Oh yeah, it’s big brain time

Thx. Always over the top; and always explaining things so well. I love all the details you offer, and insight into your design thoughts.

Instead of publishing a Twist and some separate topic for the buttons, you might want to just publish a Joy-message, specifically made for joysticks. There's a joystick_teleop node that ingests that and outputs /cmd_vel. That setup allows for remapping of the buttons and axes. Also takes care of the deadzone, scaling etc. There's a joystick node that uses in a Linux joystick device to publish Joy-messages. Then, you can make your handheld controller act as a normal joystick device via the Teensy. That way, it'll also work as a joystick if you plug it into a Windows machine, as it's then just a normal plug-and-play joystick device

In love with the amount and quality knowledge you share with us thank you❤

thanks for sharing all this knowledge with us, you are the best! :)

Such a strong Lemmings vibe from the printing music this time :D

Ive been working on almost the EXACT same project, except with a pi 3 and a waveshare monitor and some pcbs similar to Nintendo joycons. I'm actually powering mine with just a cell phone battery bank that shows the percentage left on the pack.

I like it. It reminds of the controllers they used in the movie, Real Steel. :)

I love all these projects and that you make them available open source. Just one thought though: It would be nice if you could also provide a BOM. Like what are the joy sticks? What are the buttons? Where did they come from? Keep up the awesome work!

Nice looking JoyCons

Very good work and cool

A dedicated hat with the Teensy and all I/Os and connectors (I²C, SPI...) could be nice, to avoid USB cable (by directly using the serial port on GPIOs), and allows further developpements.

I don't know much about the ras-pi hardware/software, but having direct IO access might also help reduce latency.

I would publish values from 0-1 from the remote. The subscriber (in this case the robot) should then map these to speed values.

Love your work!

i like the way the background is being cleaned up... and looking more professional. but, that being said, i don't care what the background looks like as long as the content continues to be so highly interesting and well done.

Very Good!

i love your videos but it makes me realize just how simple i am lol, i have tinkered with this stuff but you are on another level

He is very talented.

Thats how world makes beter and beter ! This wil be useful for my other robots

Hey James! There's a ROS topic called sensor_msgs/Joy that has an array of floats for the axes and an array of ints for buttons/switches/states. Might be something that could be pretty useful for this application!

Never heard of ROS Serial before. Sounds neat! Also you could use the power of 3D printing to make it more ergonomic than that shoebox shape lol

Need to make one of these myself

ROS sounds like it could be a pretty good base for a home automation project, cheap easy touch screen control panel in every room which can all share data and then you can either pass that data to other services or set up "robots" to control appliances/lighting.

Can you share the link of the joysticks?

I love this idea and would like to reproduce it for my own projects. Is there a parts list for the components that are used in this build?

Something like this would also be great for making a portable RPI emulation console, just swap out the joysticks for ones from a regular game controller and maybe tweak the design a bit to accommodate a dpad.

Amazing

Another advantage of 1, 2, 4 and 8 being bits on an int, is that you can press multiple buttons at the same time, and would send something like 3, which would be 1 and 2 being pressed together. Where if you sent 1,2,3,4 for each button, you would never know if 3 is button 3, or 1 and 2 at the same time, so you could never combine buttons.

You should add a d-pad, one extra button and shoulder buttons. Then it'd be a good retro pi handheld :D

Awesome.

hey first of all thank you for your video i realy like them, juste wanted to know what os run on the raspberry pi in the remote

Quality 🤩🤩🤩

i've worked with Tkinter for some things and that worked great. i also saw some nice things made in Dear PyGui

great upgrade to the remote. what are the details on that touch screen? do you have a link

This ROS stuff is looking amazing! I'd never have imagined that a distributed OS would be fast enough for real time controls but apparently not! One thing I'd be a little concerned about is if the remote runs out of battery while controlling a robot, in case the robot disappears off into the distance with no way to stop it. Implementing a heartbeat/watchdog timer from the remote to say "hey, i'm still here!" that the robot subscribes to, and automatically shuts down if it doesn't receive the message after a timeout?

@jamesbruton

Yes that's a good point. That could just be another ROS message on repeat.

Omg you made a nintendo switch :D This is looking sleek :) Cant wait what you do with it.

I was thinking how great it would be if you would make a Puzzle Box. Like the ones on the channel of Chris Ramsey. That would be so fricking awesome. To see your mechanical skills in a Puzzle. Maybe you could do a collaboration!

Ho, A new video ! Bam, Instant like !

Do you have any code showing how to move motors on a client requesting servo angles from a server via tcp or udp? for example, I am trying to use a pi as a webcam, do some color tracking on the jetson nano, and send the angles back to the same pi with the camera, which is attached to the servos. A remote tracking cam. I have the video working, and the servo angles outputting. I can bind the socket, but my while True loop locks up when I try to create a data connection. I should know this, but I should also learn ros. This looks very practical.

Nice clean prints compared to when i started watching your videos. I spend way too much time aiming for perfect quality for final prints.

You can use ESP32 with micropython firmware. It has analog and digital pins, which can be assigned as inputs or outputs. Check also M5 stack core 2 or other ESP32 boards.

Amazing idea for a controller! I have a suggestion, it would be really nice if you could make some diagrams to show how the RPi interfaces versus the Teensy over serial with the rosserial as protocol and so on, it would make the understanding much more easier. Looking forward for you to push the designs!!!

So cool

This is really good stuff. I'm curious as to wether or not this controller could be used, for driving a small, electric vehicle. Like a remote control, go kart. 😊

You do not need the sda and scl wires. I2C goes over the DSI cable. You just need 5V, GND and DSI ribbon connected. EDIT: only pi 1a and 1b required separate I2C connection.

Looking good. Man I should have used those joysticks on my robot controller. Any idea on how easy they are to mod into throttle style sticks by extracting the tension springs? Needed throttle sticks on my 34 analog input controller but would have been nice to have a bit larger sticks like what you are using.

@james: What was your source for the three-axis joysticks?

Hey James, great video! Have you heard of RemoteXY? its an app based remote control for bluetooth arduino devices with a customizable gui..

Hey @jamesbruton have you any plans to update the remote?

awesome =D

What type of wireless connection do you use? wifi? bluetooth? Is it possible to use nrf24l01 or LoRa?

Where can I find those sticks, or what do I search for?

Aragafar everything is so chunky! My brain is crying everytime

How is the information from the joystick, computer and robot transferred? Is the ROS system "conversing" over WiFi? Or Bluetooth? Or something else? I'm relatively new to ROS and I've only sent information over USB and Ethernet cables.

What joysticks do you use?

Ob my first projects I used PyGame as well. PyQT with QT Designer could be a better option for you programming an GUI instead.

I probably would've stuck with a dedicated radio link like the nrf chip so that when you pipe lidar or image or tf data to the pi screen it doesn't delay your control inputs

You can get a 3/4G and SIM hat for the PI.

would you ever consider building D-0 from star wars ep. 9?

Maybe I missed it, but why did you use the teensy to connect to the buttons and joysticks instead of just using the GPIO already on the Raspberry Pi?

@danielh.8836

3 жыл бұрын

The raspberry pi has no analog inputs. The joysticks need them so he needs some kind of "converter"

The generalisation ROS appears to provide seems to make everything else overly complex.

Hi James, if you connect the Teensy directly to the Pi GPIO Pins you could use one of the internal UARTs for serial connection. The Pi 4 has enough of them ( www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/uart.md ) and you could save space and a usb cable ;-)
