Simple online simulation of robots for demonstration/education purposes

RoboScape Online Server

This repository contains a server for a simple simulation of RoboScape robots written in C#. This is intended for use with the RoboScape Online NetsBlox extension.

Requirements

The only dependency that must be pre-installed is the .NET runtime >7.0. The other dependencies are either (for pre-built binaries) included or (if building locally) acquired during the build process.

Configuration

In appsettings.json, a few options can be configured:

• RoboScapeSimSettings
  • RoboScapeHost - Host of RoboScape instance to communicate with
  • RoboScapePort - Port to communicate with RoboScape instance on
  • IoTScapePort - Port to communicate with IoTScape instance on
  • MaxRooms - Maximum number of rooms to allow users to create

Current Scenarios

• Default: One robot and three boxes on a large plane
• Wall: Robot with a large wall
• Square Driving: Robot and a cube to drive around
• Four Color Robots: Four robots of different colors
• Obstacle Course: Robots must drive through gaps in walls and push a block out of the way to reach the end
• Table with N Boxes and M Robots (With Lidar?): M Robots on a raised platform with N boxes to push off, optionally with LIDAR sensors
• LIDAR Road (difficulty): A path robots must navigate autonomously using LIDAR sensors
• Waypoint Navigation (wait for N s?): Random waypoints appear on the ground, the robot must navigate to them
• Final Challenge (mini?): Two robots must work together to complete a complex task
