This was a group project to make an interactive Pong game with Rethink’s Sawyer robotic arm. We utilized ultrasonic range finders and on-the-fly computations of the arm’s twist in ROS to cause Sawyer to carry a ball back and forth between the two players paddles (hands held in front of the range-finders).
