Physical Computing Robot Tracking Installation

This installation in SparkFun's classroom uses a modded PS3 eye which can only see InfraRed, an ultra-short throw projector mounted above the ceiling, Community Core Vision for tracking and calibration and Processing running MSAFluid to demonstrate the tracking.

The sumobot was created by Tim (www.badfrank.net) and is controlled with a hacked Wii Chuck, arduino and a couple of xbees. The bot also has an IR LED on top for tracking.

There is more information on the project at Chris Rojas' site:

ic a new school, physical computing verson of combat from Atari in the near future. awsome work

[sparkfun]

@llluxaeterna this is just the first test, we're improving the software.
