Hey Pinci, While this is a little strange, I wouldn't spend too much time on this... after all, Oracle releases a new version of it's virtualisation software every fortnight. It is possible that it is just a small bug in the way the VM handles 3D graphics. Perhaps someone should just send an article...

Hi Pincy, sorry about the slow reply, the mailout / subscription to this forum seems a bit stochastic in the sense of when I'm notified about posts. Anyway, here are my results of installing ARGoS on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32 Bit. For this testing I used a Live CD on real (as apposed to virtualised) hardw...

Thanks for the fast reply Pincy, I'll look into that header file and see if I can get some better insights.

I have added the grippers sensor and actuator to the XML, added and initialised the references to my footbot_clustering controller (as follows) and have run the experiment. m_pcGripperActuator = dynamic_cast<CCI_FootBotGrippe...

Hi All, I have been going through the ARGoS source code trying to understand how a robot (along with it's sensors and actuators) is defined and instantiated in the simulator. As far as I can tell, entities whether they are inanimate blocks or complex robots are not treated any differently by the sim...

Hi Arkapravo,

I have successfully compiled ARGoS under Ubuntu 12.04LTS (64 bit). I'm currently writing up a tutorial / walk though of my steps and I will post it here when I'm done.

Cheers,

Also, this is the configuration of the VirtualBox display on the host side. vbox-display-config.png The VirtualBox additions have been installed, i.e. I can resize the X server display area by resizing the window and the Gnome 3 shell loads in the '3D' Accelerated mode. Most of the OpenGL screen sav...
