Razvojno okolje za vizualno programiranje mobilnih robotov

Majkić, Dušan (author), Vrabič, Rok (mentor), Butala, Peter (co-mentor)

Na Fakulteti za strojništvo Univerze v Ljubljani poteka vsako leto poletna šola, v sklopu katere se izvaja delavnica »Mobilni robot«. Na delavnici osnovno- in srednješolci spoznavajo delovanje mobilnega robota, kar zajema tudi njegovo programiranje, pri čemer se nekateri otroci prvič srečajo s programiranjem. Z namenom približevanja programiranja otrokom so se v zadnjem desetletju razvila programska okolja oz. programski jeziki, ki za uspešno delo s programskim jezikom od uporabnika ne zahtevajo nobenega predznanja, saj programiranje temelji na uporabi grafičnih objektov. Cilj diplomske naloge je bila izbira in izvedba modifikacije izbranega vizualnega programskega okolja z namenom programiranja mobilnih robotov. Modifikacija programskega okolja je potekala preko dodajanja vrstic kode v izvorno kodo programa. Končni rezultat je bil modificirano vizualno programsko okolje z vsebovanimi novimi bloki kode, ki omogočajo programiranje mobilnega robota. Za konec je bil z namenom testiranja predelave in z uporabo naših novih blokov kode sprogramiran enostaven program gibanja mobilnega robota.

Abstract

At Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Ljubljana a summer school takes place every year, within which a workshop »Mobile robot« is organized. At the workshop pupils from elementary and high schools learn about mobile robots and their programming. At this age most of the pupils do not have any knowledge about programming. Therefore, in the past decade new programming languages were developed. These programming languages do not require any special knowledge about programming, because the coding is based on the use of graphical objects. The aim of this diploma thesis was to choose a visual integrated development environment, which supports the Arduino platform, and to modify the chosen visual integrated development environment to support robot programming. Modification of the program was made by inserting new lines of code in the multiple folders of the program’s source code. The end result was modified visual integrated development environment with included blocks of code to program the mobile robot. In order to make a test of the modification the simple a robot moving program was made with the use of the new blocks.
