Rescue Line Simulator: train for RoboCup without a field, a robot, or a budget
Our biggest open source project yet: a free browser simulator for RoboCup Junior Rescue Line. Build courses, program a virtual robot in JavaScript, score your runs.
pid-scope: we open sourced our PID tuning tool
A live terminal plotter for robot serial telemetry. Watch your error curve in real time instead of guessing why the robot wobbles. Free, MIT licensed.
rescue-line-scorer: score your practice runs like a referee
An interactive terminal score keeper for Rescue Line practice runs. One key per event, live total, CSV history. Open source, MIT licensed.
rescue-run-timer: practice with a real competition clock
A competition-style terminal timer: 8-minute countdown, lack-of-progress counter, event log. Because at a tournament the clock never stops. MIT licensed.
RoboCup Junior Rescue Line: the complete beginner's guide
What RoboCup Junior Rescue Line is, how the course works, how scoring is structured and what a team needs to get started, explained from scratch.
Line following with PID control: from theory to a robot that doesn't wobble
Why bang-bang line followers wobble, how a PID controller fixes it, and a practical method to tune Kp, Ki and Kd on a real Rescue Line robot.
