SRV-1 Blackfin MSRS

Hi,

I see there is a way to connect roborealm to MSRS. Is there a way i can use the Surveyor SRV-1 blackfin to connect to roborealm. Then capture video AND control the SRV through roborealm from MSRS?

My application is simple, inside MSRS i'd like be able to acquire a pink balls distance and direction from the robot. Then from here, i'd like to control the SRV from this data. I know it can be done within roborealm, but i need MSRS.

Thank you,
Travis

Just a few ideas to think about.

Can you write AVI files in MSRS? I know you can in Roborealm. Then you could just open up the video stream in another program right?

I think you would be able to do your whole application within Roborealm, but it seems you are adamant you want to use MSRS.

These links may prove useful:

Maybe what I said gave you something to think about, but I would perhaps doubt that as I have never used MSRS sorry :S

Best regards and good luck

Hi, yes, MSRS is necessary as this is part of a larger project implemented in MSRS.

With the add-in for the SRV-1, it looks like one can assign variables to control the motors along with other aspects of the rover. Are these variables accessable through MSRS?

Yes, those variables are accessible. See the GetVariableExample solution in the MSRS download at

http://www.roborealm.com/downloads/MSRS_v1.5.zip

All variables should be read and write accessible from MSRS ... so yes, you can use MSRS to set a motor variable that will command the SRV to move in a particular direction.

STeven.
