doing cool stuff with Python and Industrial Robots....

[Chris Colbert]

Im just finishing up some research work during a stint as a visiting
researcher in Germany.

I've made a short clip showing a KUKA robot performing object reconstruction
using a single camera mounted on the robot.

The entire system is written in Python (control, math, everything) and
related infrastructure (Cython/NumPy/Scipy/Mayavi/etc...)

I cant give any technical details yet, as I have a few papers still pending
publication. But I thought you all might enjoy the video.

Everyone likes big robots!!!

~60MB

The video begins by showing the ground-truth of the object rendered as a
wireframe. The robot then captures three images of the object from various
vantages. The software then reconstructs the shape of the object, and
overlays the wireframe with the results.


Cheers!

Chris
