First moving

I'm working so far, the robot has not really moved even once. Last week, my project finally ran the first time, however, there still lots problems have not be really solved.

First testing is to send a command to robot, let it follow a person. The command sent to robot is X.Y value, which is exact same point that a person past through. Testing was not too bad, robot did follow the command and move properly. But robot moved to the opposite direction. The reason for that happen, was due to the robot own X-axis was not as same as the tracking system's.
Also , there's a problem about transformation of scale of abscissa between tracking system and robot system.

In the next week, it will be busy: keep testing; updating thesis; evaluation.

Writing thesis

Today, I read the thesis I've done month ago. I feel bad, as I do not understand some of what I've wrote about, and there are lots bad grammars. Correct, read again, still have some "Chinglish". However I did not feel comfortable with this kind of mistakes, I have to keep writing, get the rest part done as much as I can.

Socket problem finally be solved, new problems came out. Today, I just fond some of the control problems with checking previous work for writing thesis. Oh, dear! My darling god! Look, what I've done before! Although these mistakes I can fix and won't take too long time, I just was not feeling bright, indeed, I pissed myself off. Time is getting less, and I have to look it back to fix those kinds of stupidity. Tomorrow I might have to run all of the project. JJ is already not happy with my progression, and my friend is really busy recently...

Evaluation have to be took place next week. Hope, hope, less problems...

Just finished the sound generators Chapter, tomorrow, I'm going to write about the routes design part which will take some time.

Half test

Time is less and less, although, there is one or two weeks left for evaluation, I still have to write the rest part asap.

Until today, the socket finally working, but the new problem is to split the number and the symbol which is stick with the last number without the space. Last Friday, I tested my half project, the sound generate for human. Funny thing is, tracking system just sent at most 3 number in a group at each time, the receive in PD was fine, but when sent to MSP socket, it only showing the first one or separating the number group into two. I tried different way to figure out the problem, until I unpack the receive data with 4 number boxes. The data shows that the first two number were 0, only the last two shows the data which I want. That's wired! But at least got it work.

This test although have not be able to check all the project, it checked the sound generate is working fine at least, then I only have to check the other part to make sure it works only. Hope will get all of these work soon.
