Roomba tackles IBM maze in Second Life - the SLoomba again

Jul 27, 2007 12:59



So we decided to take the SLoomba out for a spin in the maze on the IBM Codestation sim in Second Life. Well the Roomba may do a great job vacuuming our rooms at our real life home and the SLoomba may do a great job vacuuming our rooms in Second Life, but the SLoomba will need a bit of work to navigate the maze. The first issue is battery life of the SLoomba. We have it only run for a few mintues which is not nearly enough time to get through the maze. We should also modify the wall following mechanism so that the SLoomba does not turn around after a while just like the Roomba does in RL. Minor adjustments.
