Re: Publications that use Hebi robots
I still find it interesting to look at all the different research that uses Hebi modules. The ever-increasing number of authors using them makes it difficult to track all of them these days, but here is another batch, in no particular order, (I have not read them all): Zhang, Baohe, et al. "On the i...

Changing name/family on Android
I see on the Mobile IO app for iPhones, you can change the family/name of how the phone appears as a "module" on the network to the Hebi API. This seems to be necessary to run scripts like the Daisy walking demo. Is there a way to do something equivalent on Android? I have a Samsung Galaxy S9, and I...

Re: Publications that use Hebi robots
Here's another batch of newer papers I've found using Hebi modules: Luck, Kevin Sebastian, Heni Ben Amor, and Roberto Calandra. "Data-efficient co-adaptation of morphology and behaviour with deep reinforcement learning." Conference on Robot Learning. PMLR, 2020. Yang, Shuo, et al. "State estimation ...

Publications that use Hebi robots
I've noticed a few recent papers that use Hebi robots, and think it would be interesting to keep a list of such papers. This could help to gauge what the state of the art control methods and their performance. A few that I have seen: Mueller-Sim, Tim, et al. "The Robotanist: a ground-based agricultu...

Re: Actuator changed its absolute zero angle
Update: another lab member was working with X-80656 (an X8-9 on a hexapod) and also observed that the position reference point jumped by exactly 90 degrees.
We are not sure yet what causes this but he did not change it deliberately.

Re: Actuator changed its absolute zero angle
Interestingly, I've observed a similar behavior, only on one or two of the X5-9 modules. I know no one changed it since I am the only one with access to it, and the change happened on a local network without internet access. What I saw was that sometimes the zero reference point would vary by exactl...

URDF velocity limit units
I think that the units are incorrect in the velocity field of your actuator urdfs.
https://github.com/HebiRobotics/hebi_de ... ator.xacro
has velocity limits that seem to be in rpm, when the urdf standard interpretation is in rad/s.

Re: Network topology discovery
Thanks for all the suggestions. I like the LED idea, I will think about how to adapt that for my custom hexapod. I'm switching around their order frequently so constantly crawling under it to find the serial numbers has become tiring. Since I don't have a serial-chain robot, the IMU method would be ...

Actuator port coverings
When using the X-series modules, I try to be careful to avoid collisions with the plugs, but occasionally, they happen accidentally. I know Hebi offers beautiful 3D printed parts that cover the through-bore of the modules, but I haven't seen any that cover the plug area. I am working on a part that ...

I'm Julian, a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon.
I'm Julian Whitman, a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University in the Biorobotics Laboratory since 2015. I've always had a fascination with bio-inspired (especially insectoid) robots, which led me to working on modular hexapods snake robots. In turn, this inspired my current research on automatical...
