12:09 PM aggrav8d: hello?
12:11 PM veverak: hello
12:25 PM ace4016: is it me you're looking for?
12:47 PM mrdata_ is now known as mrdata
12:59 PM aggrav8d: nice.
01:00 PM aggrav8d is now known as i-make-robots
01:01 PM veverak: again the question: where to get decent camera for 'pipe inspection robot'
01:01 PM veverak: wired
01:01 PM veverak: 60 meters
01:06 PM i-make-robots: fiber optic cable.
01:06 PM i-make-robots: plus if it gets stuck you can pull it back out.
01:07 PM veverak: cable is not camera
01:38 PM ace4016: is the robot wired?
01:39 PM veverak: yes
01:43 PM ace4016: hrm, as long as the transmission across 60m isn't too degraded, anything that meets frame rate and resolution and size dimensions should work
01:47 PM veverak: 250mm tunnel
01:47 PM veverak: wnated to use IP camera
01:48 PM veverak: but found out that they can be quite big
07:05 PM logb0t_ is now known as logb0t
09:33 PM rue_mohr: I was going to use a high voltage pair and fiber optic
09:33 PM rue_mohr: (ethernet)
09:34 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/robots/ductbot/dscn8757.jpg
09:34 PM rue_mohr: wait wait that wasn't it
09:34 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/robots/pipebot/dscn4452.jpg
09:34 PM rue_mohr: that was for it
09:35 PM rue_mohr: remember to dangle a screw on a string infront of the camera so you can tell which way id down
10:04 PM Tom_L: you'd need to waterproof it, no?
11:32 PM rue_mohr: dunno
11:32 PM rue_mohr: couldn't work out the cable
11:32 PM rue_mohr: it'd have to be custom fiber cable
11:32 PM rue_mohr: it was looking like $300000
11:32 PM rue_mohr: cant do THAT!
11:43 PM i-make-robots: got jacobian calculations working on my arm, got inverse kinematics, got shitty ui... why can't i make any decent looking demos? ?_?
11:53 PM rue_mohr: I skipped all that, did a realtime recording controller
11:57 PM i-make-robots: yeah, i have a joystick and I can do that.
11:57 PM i-make-robots: i added filters to movement because once in a while a sensor would bork out and the arm would get.... dangerous.
