Work Estimate: 40+ hrs. The iPad mounted on the robot’s chest is meant to support several features: • Display slides and videos of the lab, PSU building, etc. • Display lists of robot functions, speech commands, etc. • Display images or animation of gesture recognition poses. • Provide touch screen controls for robot features. To support these items, software will need to be developed on both the iPad and in CountessQuantaControl to support USB communication between the iPad and the laptop PC. Sequence functionality will need to be added to allow a Frame to display a specific slide/image/video on the iPad, while the robot is interacting. The iPad software will need to be able to display touch screen button options and send the user’s selection to CountessQuantaControl to trigger a Sequence or other behavior.
