Tue, 08 Dec 2009Excellent tutorial on the Surveyor SVS (stereo vision system)
AForge.NET is an open source C# framework with SRV-1 and SVS Blackfin support that was designed for developers and researchers in the fields of computer vision and artificial intelligence - image processing, neural networks, genetic algorithms, machine learning, robotics, etc. We first described AForge.NET SRV-1 and SVS support here -
http://www.surveyor.com/cgi-bin/robot_journal.cgi/2009/11/05#238.
Since that post, the AForge.NET developers have written an excellent introduction to SVS, describing system setup along with a guide and sample code to create C# applications which control the board remotely, interface to servos, ultrasonic ranging, I2C devices and motor control. The tutorial is found here -

Thu, 03 Dec 2009Bat-tek Project
Bat-teK is a Carnegie Mellon + Lockheed Martin project that uses a lot of Surveyor's robotic technologies, including the YARB blimp, SVS, and SRV-1 robot, along with CMU's console applications and mapping technology. CMU produced this very cool promotional video for the project.
