Hi Chris,

Could you please take a look at enhancement issue #198 as I have a few questions concerning running rviz?

Hi Chris,

I have essentially completed the docking station and the ArloBot docking probe.

I have performed the following to complete the docking station/docking probe:

  1. Installed a 10 amp 24 vdc switching power that can be adjusted to power the battery charging module and the ArloBot SBC/Accessories.
  2. Installed a 1.5 amp 5 vdc power converter to power the IR transmitter and the adjustable timing circuit.
  3. Installed a relay controlled by an adjustable timing circuit in order to prevent arcing when the docking probe pogo pins make contact with the docking station power plates.
  4. Installed all six pogo pins on the ArloBot docking probe.

All that I require now is the integration of the ir_Code.cpp into the ArloBot sofware package so that the ArloBot can perform the auto docking function.

Regards,

TCIII
