Movement mapping

Hello,
I am working on a robotics project and we are using Labview 10 to accomplish this. Currently I am trying to take the GPS signals from our robot's navigation and then map out its location (on a graph or grid) with each update, so that it shows a trail, marking where it was. I tried looking through the forums, but to no prevail. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this or know any places that have good references on it. Any martials that could help me with this project would be most appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Take a look at: \examples\general\graphs\Plot Images.vi for some ideas on how to plot a picture of the robot along the graph.
Otherwise, I would say that if you have the Vision module, it has better tools for doign things like overlay, moving pictures around, etc.
In terms of converting x,y and cooridinates, it sounds like you just need to be able to convert the Lat/Long in to X,Y values.  I would think that could be straight forward by saying that that image covers a certain range of Lat and Long, which corresponds to a range of X and Y pixel values.
What do you think about some of those ideas?
Cheers,
Karl

  • Why am I unable to use the mouse to move maps around in yahoo maps?

    When I open yahoo maps, I'm unable to hold down the left mouse button and move the map around to view other locations. However, double-clicking will allow me to zoom in and I can right click to pull up options to zoom out. This isn't an issue when I open yahoo maps in IE, but I don't want to use IE.

  • Spotlight does not show Movies, Maps, Wikipedia or Websearches

    Hi,
    I'm looking att all these nice features that Spotlight should have, but quite a few are not working for me.
    I'm running a Mac Mini on 10.10.1.
    When looking at the spotlight preferences I have 22 categories to choose from. Maps, Wiki and Movies are not not listed amongst the categories.
    I have no idea if they should be there, but the internetz seem do indicate that they should.
    I can see why Movies do not appear as I'm not living in the US and I believe that those are fetched from Fandango. Perhaps this is also true for Maps
    if this is in fact Yelp rather than Maps searches (not sure why that would be). But why no Wiki ? Wiki actually DO exist outside of the US, and
    why not letting me use it just because I happen to live in another country ?
    I've seen that Language & Region settings seems to be a candidate for this behaviour so does this mean I have to switch system language or region (and
    screw up all time settings) just so that I can get Wiki to show up on Spotlight ? If that's the case I'd very much like Apple to fire someone.
    Bing Searches is listed as a category, but when moved to the very top I still never get any web search results. Any ideas about that one ?
    Same Language/Region issue ? If yes, than that is even more ridonkeylous than the wiki one. It basically means that there has to be a
    line of code where it checks if language matches the region and actively remove the bing results rather than not just run that search.
    All in all Spotlight just doesn't seem to be nearly as useful for actual users if you live outside Cupertino to be honest. Much disappoint.
    /Niklas

    When you hover over a file in spotlight list (or select with up/down arrow) you can also hit command-R to open the folder where the file is located. Kind of like 'Show Original' for aliases.
    But yeah, Apple really needs to just show the directory path on the hover pop-up by default. Obviously, when you do a search you'll most likely get several files with the same name - we need to see the locations to tell them apart. One of the main reasons to do a file search is to simply find out 'where the file is located' - not necessarily open the file. Seems pretty shortsighted to not show the file location in the search result.

  • When drag Google Maps (embed/API) control trigger swipeleft or swiperight event

    Swipeleft o swiperight events are trigger not only with touch screens, also with mouse pointer in PC/Mac. The problem is that if the user move mouse for move map to right or to left, then these events are triggered.
    How can I prevent it?

    Using Map-options you can disable dragging ,zooming etc
    ex :
    var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('Stage_Rectangle'),

  • How do I get an old app of splashtop to work

    I desparately need someone to help me.
    Last fall I had a Toshiba Tablet, and I purchased the Splashtop app.
    I just recently sold it, and bought an iPad 2 yesterday.
    I am having all kinds of trouble, setting this app up on my iPad.   Can someone tell me step by step what I need to do.   I have contacted splashtop several times, with no luck.
    I also had to change my router back to its default settings awhile back, and I didn't know if that had anything to do with it or not.
    PLEASE HELP/THANKS
    So far a frustrated iPad user.

    Regarding Splashtop, that's normal. Regarding Facebook games, I think Photon might give a better, more touch optimized experience (I haven't used it myself) but using Splashtop to play the games would work as well, yes.

  • Correct animation in 2D(ActionPerformed on Timer)

    Hi folks,
    I'm developing small game in java, where I need some character animation. My path findning algorithm working well, but there is some problem with character and map animation.
    Let me explain in few words.
    1. Character is not moving, map is moving under character.
    When character advances to the middle of screen, it is only played character walk animation, but character it self not moving, map is moving instead, using some offset variables. I'm storing character position according to offset and base position. Since character is moving 4 pixels per frame, I should also move map 4 pixels, but when I try to move map 4 pixels, it's very ugly, because user can notice a big area is moving. I'm trying to implement solution to move map 1 pixel ate the time, but the time is 1/4 of character animation time(for example character moves 4 pixels every 100 ms, so if character is stoppep, only animation is being played, map is moving 1 pixel in 25ms)
    2. Character is moving.
    When the map is corner, character is moving 4 pixels per frame.
    My problem is in synchrnozition of character animation and map moving in situation 1.
    He is some code and output I'm getting:
    Here is the timer, which I set to do character animation.
    world.character_timer = new Timer(100, new ActionListener() {
                     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
                          characterAnimation();
                         repaint();
            );Here is the timer which I set to do map animation.
    world.map_timer = new Timer(25, new ActionListener() {
                     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
                          calculateMAP_OFFSET();
                         repaint();
            );In function
    characterAnimation()I'm calling
    System.out.println("++++++ Character animation: " + System.currentTimeMillis());and in function
    calculateMAP_OFFSET()I'm calling
    System.out.println("++++++ MAP animation: " + System.currentTimeMillis());NOTE: character_timer is set to *100*, map_timer is set to *25*
    And here are results:

    Map animation is not being called 4 times before character animation, like I set the period... Is there any possible solution for this?

    I think it can be a solution?

    Thank you for your reply. The views are extended and i did look at the SCU set up and they seem to be good. Actually the scenario is that we had a system where all these processes were working fine in a client. A client copy was made to a new system and i am facing issues simulating in the new client.
    I faced an issue in the new system where the function module to create IDN and ID itself was not getting determined and it was because of logical system issue in EWM>Interfaces>ERP Integration>Goods movement>Map storage locations ERP and EWM..I have corrected and the queue gets processed now but i run into this new error.
    Will investigate a little more and see how it goes...
    I have checked out different settings but i was still not able to fid a solution..Did anybody see this kind of message earlier ?

  • Buttons on chapter pages won't "select" in proper sequential order

    I am exporting a multi-chapter movie from iMovie 6.0.3 to iDVD 6.0.4. When previewing with DVD Player to see how the finished movie would function when viewed on TV, I find that it's impossible to advance through more than 3 scene buttons on any chapter page in sequential order - no matter which "theme" I select for the movie. On the Reflection template, the chapter and page forward/back buttons select in a seemingly random sequence.
    The movie map page shows all chapters in proper order, so there are no clues there to the malfunction in navigating between chapter buttons. Does anyone have a solution/ workaround to this problem?

    Thanks for your helpful suggestions. I was thinking along the same lines - so I played around with re-sending the project to iDVD, moving between themes, and doing a series of edits in my chosen theme to see the results of consciously working with the chapter menus in different ways.
    Surprisingly, I got the best result (a predictable and orderly, though not sequential, movement through all six chapters on a menu page) when I selected the "free position" option to release the buttons from snapping to grid, and then shifted the buttons slightly to align their edges in a particular relationship to each other (arriving at this finding was pure serendipity).
    In some cases the original chapter title was long enough to overlap another button, but this did not seem to cause the random movement between buttons, as short titled-buttons seemed just as likely to be affected, whether or not they followed a long-titled button. But it seems possible that the presence of any long-titled button on a page could somehow affect the behavior of the entire page, or that there is something related to the titles that triggers or contributes to the problem (ie, even text that looks short enough may exceed some parameter) so I think this is worth keeping in mind.
    Once the chapter button is selected (no matter how arduous it is to get there) it always plays the right clip. And "play all" plays the entire movie in correct sequence. So this quirk seems to be related to the specific code which determines how chapters queue for selection on the menu page.

  • IMovie hang

    On a large iMovie'09 project that I'm working on (1hr 16min) I now have a problem that iMovie is coming into a hang situation every time I want to do something in the projectarea. After loading the project I can play the movie by hitting the space bar but every click on a clip is forcing a hang. I was almost ready with editing: 10 to 12 minutes of clips to go.
    Is there a solution for this problem, somebody same experience? I added already 2 extra GB of memory (now GB) on my 2.4 MBPro. No result (only the project is loading faster)
    Is iet too big, how to increase when im not able to enter the projectzone?

    The problem seems to be that there's a limit at the audio imports. When I deleted some voiceovers and mp3's added on the last day the project was edittable. I deleted them from the items list that appears rightclicking on the project in the movies map.
