In this repository, I maintain the code for the Scientific Working in Computational Engineering Course at the Institute of Digital and Autonomous Construction. The task for this project was to create a digital twin of a robotic arm and moving platform system that coordinates the movement in the context of a cement printing. As a simulation environment, I chose the WeBots simulator and implemented a simple controler that maximizes the potential printing area.
First, clone the repository.
git clone https://github.com/jonathan-hellwig/scientific_working.git
Install python <= 3.9. Then, using a python package manager install all required packages.t
pip install -r requirements.txt
Download and install the latest version of Webots.
Open up Webots and select the the world file in the worlds subdirectory.
Then, the simulation should automatically start running. However, the first run always fails because some values are not initialized correctly. Press ctrl+shift+T to reset the simulation.
