Just a note: it is used in our workshops and by a high school teacher with whom I'm working; for example we want to count grey and black lines on a sheet of paper. Student are shown how to plot what the ground sensors perceive and then they observe in real time the sensor values as the robot moves. They use this to decide on thresholds to use. Similarly we observe the accelerometer values changing as we turn the robot, or in freefall. For this, i like being able to observe at the same time the robot and the plots. They can really make the link like "ah, this is when I hit the robot", they can even test it again to check. If they just observe the plot AFTER performing the experiment, it's not so easy. It is also quite convenient that there is no need for another program; we avoid the part where it goes "open excel and plot your data" "but i didn't install excel, can I use octave?" "How do you plot it with R again?" _______________________________________________ Aseba-thymio mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/aseba-thymio
