The Wireless Development System (WDS)
Item Image
In experimentation with mobile robots, a development cycle consists of “debug-time” and “run-time.”
Debug-time: experimenter modifies and compiles the software that controls the functions of the mobile robot.
Run-time: the robot is actually moving while the experimenter evaluates the effects of the software modifications.
Wireless Development System (WDS): provides a wireless user-interface for allowing the experimenter full interaction with the onboard computer from a stationary location.
