Robot arm!

It is always good to be reminded of how hard robotics can be! I got a taste of that again when I worked with the SO-100 this summer and the last few months. But I had a lot of fun building it at least!

ROS 2: Across the Windows-Verse

Three months ago, I went head-first into full-on Windows Development. Have I gone screaming mad already? Well... no, actually! I managed to establish a handy workflow between the ROS native Windows install and WSL2. This blog post shows the process of what I've set up.

Enjoy!

In this blog post, I explain how I tried to figure out in which simulator I should invest some of my project development time. Little did I know of the very deep rabbit hole that presented itself, and I dived right in! Did it help me with my choice? A little, but perhaps I've created something that is even more useful: a best-of-list of robot simulators.

Enjoy!

Robotics on Windows, Are You Mad?!

Yes, I am a little bit mad. Why the hell do I torture myself to get development to work on Windows... well, I tried to trace back the journey for robotics development, where I desperately tried to hang on to Windows, but had to settle for a dual boot, only to slowly return to give development on Windows a chance again.

Enjoy! (I hope 😉)
