1. MIXED REALITY ROBOTICS RESEARCH TEAM SCRIBBY: MIRZA SIKANDER

2. OVERVIEW -Mixed reality robotics -Scribbler -Calico -SECRET WEAPON -Things that I would like to do with Scribbler -Closing comments

3. MIXED REALITY ROBOTICS -Mixed-reality robotics has two dimensions: virtual and physical. -Software plays a major role because it not just provides routines for the robot. It also sustains the virtual world. -Goes beyond compared to a regular software application

4. -Two wheels support reduces complexity -Few sensors. SCRIBBLER: FIRST THOUGHTS

5. -Can not be extended by a great degree. -Understandable: Low Cost makes it more accessible to everyone. SCRIBBLER: SECOND THOUGHTS

6. -Impressive -They have taken inspiration from: -Alice and Scratch which provides drag-and-drop, nosyntax-errors programming environments, -DrRacket (formerly DrScheme) offers an award- winning integrated error display and logging system for Scheme” CALICO: FRAMEWORK DESIGNED FOR COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION

7. Main focus is to provide freedom to educators. Ideally, educators should be free to choose the most appropriate programming languages and, independently, the most appropriate themes and contexts for their courses. CALICO: A MULTI-PROGRAMMING-LANGUAGE, MULTI- CONTEXT ENVIRONMENT

8. 1)an interface for multiple programming languages 2)an interface for multiple libraries for exploring different computing contexts; 3)an interface for peer-to-peer communication 4)an integrated editor

9. CALICO: HOW IT WORKS AND WHAT IT PROVIDES -Uses a virtual machine -Calico incorporates a layer for language designers called the Dynamic Language Runtime (DLR). -Adding a new text-based or graphical language is a simple matter of adding a single file to the system.

10. SECRET WEAPON !!!

11. SECRET WEAPON

12. SECRET WEAPON ????????

13. SECRET WEAPON..SORT OF -Explorer: curious about trying out new technologies and new ideas -Experience with Robotics. -Patient: ability to stay calm when things break -I like to work with a team because you become exposed to variety of ideas and different angles of looking at the problems -Can work with wordpress

14. CONCLUSION: THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO DO WITH SCRIBBLER -Right now we are only looking at the tip of the iceberg in terms of what we can do with the scribbler -Calico provides a range of opportunities.: -FarseerPhysics - 2D Physics Engine (used in Graphics)FarseerPhysics -Calico Kinect - interface to the Kinect, through Kinect server running on WindowsCalico Kinect
