Hi, I have install roborealm 2.46.0 after I format and install new window 7

But I cannot find AVM Navigator module? old version I can find the AVM Navigator in the plugin menu

I open my old AVM Navigator project but the AVM module didnt show up. Did AVM Navigator has change name? or must install separately?

[adamsya]

Btw, can Roborealm be install in Raspberry Pi (Debian OS)?

This answer was given from RoboRealm forum:

The AVM has not changed. You probably were using the trial version of the software which includes the AVM module for testing. After the trial period the AVM module has to be purchased in addition to RoboRealm as it is a 3rd party module (see purchase page). If you wish to add this module to your account please contact me via email.

No, not currently. The PI comes with a Unix based OS which is not compatible with RoboRealm. It may be possible to install Windows on the PI and run RoboRealm but that is not something we have tried. Because of its 400Mhz rate it may also not be sufficient enough power to run any real time video analysis.

We have been busy porting parts of RoboRealm to the BeagleBone which at 750Mhz shows more promise. This has not yet been launched and host a smaller/simpler version of RoboRealm.

It is enough difficult route that was passed by robot

Fun with AVM Navigator



It's little demo of object recognition and learning from motion with helping of AVM Navigator.

All object rectangle coordinates are available in RoboRealm pipeline from external variables:
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_X - left-top corner X coordinate of recognized object
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_Y - left-top corner Y coordinate of recognized object
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_W - width of recognized object
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_H - height of recognized object

So you can use it in your VBScript program.

See here for more details.

Hi,

I noticed in the youtube video that you jiggle the object (your face or the book) slightly during the learrning phase. Is this an advantage?

Cheers,

Alan

In fact the AVM algorithm is not invariance to rotation and you should show the object for memorizing to AVM search tree under different angles during training for further correct recognition.
