ROS2.
Rosmo can be used in a few different applications:
-
A STEM learning platform using microblocks for people just starting with robotics
-
A robot for Students and hobbyists to learn Python & ROS2 programming with the same tools, languages, and libraries used in professional and industrial robots.
-
Download ESP32-S3 bin
-
Connect ESP32-S3 and flash device (you may need to hold the 'boot' button)
-
Use the Pilot version in Chrome{:target="_blank"}
-
In Microblocks; Cog icon > Install ESP firmware from URL > Paste https://microblocks.fun/downloads/pilot/vm/vm_esp32-s3.bin
-
Download this raw UBP file{:target="_blank"} and open it in the Microblocks app.

-
Provides a block programing interface
-
Provides an Android app{:target="_blank"} for remote control & detailed instructions{:target="_blank"}
Current status: Working but encoders not yet configured.
Software; Best if you want to learn ROS2 based on Linorobot2
Status: Wheels spinning, encoders working but not fully tested yet.

- Start Docker gui
- in a terminal: docker run -p 6080:80 --security-opt seccomp=unconfined --shm-size=512m samuk/rosmorobot:jazzy
- Open browser to http://127.0.0.1:6080/ fullscreen the Linux desktop tab
- Open firefox in the virtual machine,
- In file browser navigate to /Desktop/linorobot2_hardware-master/config/custom
- right click on rosmo_config.h & open in pluma (put in your wifi credentials at line 116, set the agent IP at line 113 & lidar ip at line 129 to the address of your computer, save the file
- pio -t rosmo
- Open a file browser & search for .bin
- Send the .bin file to yourself via email or Google drive
- In your normal Windows/Mac desktop environment visit [ESP web tool](https://esp.huhn.me/)
- Connect ESP32-S3 and flash device with the .bin file
- In the terminal of the virtual machine
- `cd linorobot2-rolling`
- `chmod +X install_linorobot2.bash`
- `./install_linorobot2.bash`
- `ros2 launch linorobot2_bringup bringup.launch.py micro_ros_transport:=udp4 micro_ros_port:=8888`
- In a browser access http://localhost:8888/ to get teleop UI
- Have fun
Status: Beta released providing Webui to drive the robot with encoders
Please see Micropython repository
Thanks to Alex for contributing this code
Status: Needs tweaking for ESP32S3
- Android app and Arduino for computer vision & AI
- https://www.openbot.org
Status: Doesn't exist yet, Might be interesting to do something with Arduino Mecanum and maybe Smartcar Shield at some point.
- Assemble 2WD bot
- Drive 2WD bot with Microblocks remote control from Android
- try to make the robot drive in a straight line
- Configure the encoders in microblocks and try again
- Add a pair of mechanical bump sensors, in microblocks do bump & run
- Add a sharpie - Draw a straight line on a large piece of paper
- Draw your initials
- Add a pair of line sensors, follow a line
- Add 2x wheels to make a 4wd bot
- Configure Microblocks to run 4WD
- Try and make it go in a straight line again
- Complete the parking challenge using microblocks
- Add Mecanum wheels.
- In Microblocks make the robot go sideways with remote control
- Complete the parking challenge again without making the robot turn at all
- Install an IMU & configure in Microblocks
- Add a ESP32 cam and watch the livestream from a computer
- Install a grabber & move an object from a to b in the parking challenge
- Move two objects
- Add a daughterboard with 2x oled
- Load the robot eyes in microblocks & make the eyes interact with the controls
- Install thonny/ micropython and complete steps 1-15 in Micropython code
- Install ROS and complete steps 1-15 again
- Install a Lidar and map a room
- Run the robot. A lot.
- Add the protoboard add on - Add a novel sensor to the bot and get it working
- In easyeda create a daughterboard to your own design
