Raycasting Curve onto Terrain Mesh
Переглядів 265 місяців тому
How to move the points of a sampled curve down onto a mesh below, using a Geometry Nodes graph in Blender. In other words, drape wet spaghetti onto the ground; drop points down. Update: Better (simpler, fewer nodes) solution is shown in the accepted answer here: blender.stackexchange.com/a/323267/98738 General solution shows an approach that allows both the curve and the terrain to have arbitra...

AprilTag Enhanced Odometry
Переглядів 8810 місяців тому
Even noisy data from AprilTag localization can be used to heavily improve robot odometry over just tracking the velocity of the robot's wheels. In this case the previous position estimate is first improved by moving it 70% of the way to the latest velocity-based prediction of the robot's location, and then the estimate is further improved by moving it either 10% or 50% of the way towards each A...

VB getting the D
Переглядів 80Рік тому
A point in the middle of the first half of the final game in the 2023 GRU Fall Indoor tournament. Unlike our pickup games, where the "end zone" is just the painted key, this league used the full width of the field up to the top of the key as the end zone. The white team went on to win by a single point in the final 2 seconds of the game.
Projecting Circle into Arbitrary Quad
Переглядів 42Рік тому
Any planar circle viewed by a perspective 3D camera can be represented as a 2D ellipse on the screen. For any convex 2D quad ABCD representing the projection of the bounding square for the circle onto the screen, the tangent points G,H,J,K can be determined, which in turn can be used to find the center of the ellipse, P. The center point and any three of the tangent points define the ellipse. m...

Rivian R1T Reduced Regenerative Braking on Steep Mountain Road
Переглядів 6912 роки тому
Regenerative braking is great for charging the battery on a downhill, but in my truck, on my commute, it gets “overwhelmed” 54 seconds into the ~600’ descent over one mile. There are separate messages the truck can produce for “Regenerative braking is limited due to high battery charge” (experienced at 72% charge) and “Acceleration and regenerative braking are reduced until the battery warms up...
