History

#1 Updated by S. Wrede over 12 years ago

We did a quick first test at the AMARSi hands-on workshop. @Juan: Could you probably attach your prototyping code to this issue?

#2 Updated by J. P. Carbajal over 12 years ago

Sure,
This is the file.
It is a dirty wrap of the C++ example. The file compiles with "mkoctfile" that ships with octave without warnings and works like a charm.

I can work on making a more or less usable interface as soon as there is a "hard" (as in hardware) motivation.

Details on Oct files are in the link, with some doc on the API. The doc is deprecated in certain parts but a new one is being cooked.

Thanks for uploading it and giving the right pointers to the documentation! Would be great if we could continue this... See you soon on IRC, Seb

Hi all,

I am still fighting with my thesis. Nevertheless, the people from Octave is trying for the GSoC 2012. Check here
http://octave.org/wiki/index.php?title=GSoC_Project_Ideas

If we can add the development of an RSB package for Octave students may get some money to code for it.
Please contact me if anybody is interested.

Thanks

Dear Juan Pablo,

Thx for the suggestion. I really like the idea and think we should give it a try! I suppose, it could even help in the Octave application if we argue also a bit from an application perspective (robotics and cognitive systems, possible integration with ROS?). Just in case: What would be the process? First, we would need to submit a paragraph about the idea to the Octave Wiki, right?

@Arne: Would you volunteer to support this from our side?

Cheers,

Sebastian

I would like to do that.
I will contact Juan Pablo regarding further action.

Hi,
We have one good application to work on RSB via ESA summer of code.
Please contact em ASAP!!

Here is the proposal
http://wiki.octave.org/ESA_Summer_of_Code_in_Space#Andrius_Sutas

We have to send answers by 31th July

Arne, can your respond to this as Sebastian is still on holidays.

Hi guys,
Yet another proposal to work on an Octave - RSB interface. We will need a mentor from your side. If we do not get one person asingned to this the the gropup will be reticent to accept the project because almost nobody will be able to help the students (I will but I am not really into RSB dev)

Here is the link to the proposal

Hey Juan, thanks for pointing that out. Unfortunately I don't see how/where I can apply as a mentor there or what has to be done from our side. :/

  • Category set to Matlab
  • Status changed from New to Rejected

I will reject this for now. There haven't been any requests for octave support since years. Please reopen if still required.
