Cosindering making a core library (Intergrating Smart Wheels) into can2RNET #8

Open redragonx opened 7 years ago

What do you think guys? @ysshah I think we should.

I am thinking that we can make a modularized plugin base system that allows for adding input systems easily. Like the April Tag sensor/section of smart wheels. And then make it easy to add other subsystems.

Ideally, I want to implement Bluetooth Beacon tracking via phone or any other BT device. This would be easier to use around people and doesn't rely on camera tracking. The chair PI would have multiple BT adapters to track the signal and to figure out direction/distance. And with additional external sensors to detect the environment around the chair. This is what can2RNET was originally designed for anyway, so I would like to start on this soon. :D

I just discovered can2RNET and have yet to implement it on my Q-logic 2 CAN chair. I would use the Bluetooth beacon tracking feature. I would also use something like smart wheels with a Intel Realsense D455 and targets from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.intel.realsenseviewer17613&hl=en_US&gl=US 4 years old now, but if you are still interested, so am I.

Hi @slomobile

I don't know what happened, but can2RNET has gotten a lot of attention lately. It's a good thiing. However, various people forked my project and done different things over the years. Nobody has really wanted to contribute publicly. So, to help with that. I started a Discord Server. Please join it.

As for this feature, it's been dead for a while,
