The video shows how you can access the QCar's LIDAR, read the scan, and plot the point cloud data in Python.
This video shows a typical application development with the Quanser Self-Driving Research Studio's QCar platform via ROS.
This 2 DOF Ball Balancer experiment demonstrates how a camera can be used to measure X-Y position of a ball on a flat surface and then use these measurements to stabilize the ball to a desired position on the balance plate. In this example, we are using a Proportional-Derivative (PD) control but you can add the Integral control for a full PID control loop.
The Quanser Self-Driving Car Research Studio is a powerful and customizable platform for testing and validation of self-driving vehicle research concepts, designed specifically for academia.
Quanser R&D engineers have been testing different bumper designs and materials to protect the QCar in collisions. This is a scale-speed equivalent of 120km/hr!
QCar, the feature vehicle of Quanser's new Self-Driving Car Research Studio, takes full advantage of the HIL Simulation block of our QUARC real-time control software. This simple yet powerful block lets you simulate any of Quanser DAQs or devices, allowing you to seamlessly switch between physical and virtual hardware.
Even a relatively simple servomotor plant, like the Quanser QUBE-Servo 2, can be used in advanced IoT, robotic, or unmanned systems applications. Check out what project Simon, one of our academic solutions engineers, is working on!
Medical robotic systems can make surgical and rehabilitative interventions more efficient, accurate, accessible, and reliable while reducing the burden on health care systems. The need for such robotic technologies stems from the current long wait times for surgeries, therapies and rehabilitation sessions. Surgical, therapeutic, rehabilitation and other medical interventions can be...
Quanser Shake Table I-40 meets the Mola Structural Model Kit! What a great combination for demonstrating various structural dynamics concepts!
The recent development of the Quanser QDrone, the feature vehicle of our Autonomous Vehicles Research Studio, took us on a journey from its initial validation through the virtual flight simulation to the actual take-off.
