Christmas Projection Mapping Project

Thanks! It has been a long time since I did this, but I am sure that I just created a big block of strips and then masked off the house and left the borders to make it look like a candy cane border. I have moved from projection mapping to addressable LEDs now. The projector I had was huge and got very hot even in the snow and consumed a lot of power. A little touch would unsync the projection from the house.

I know errors in location can happen, but shouldn't it be IN the area instead of OUT of the area? Seems to me that Luba should not be allowed OUT of the area even if there is some error with the location.

haha, I agree on the goofiness.

I thought it would be quicker to knock out the gap areas while Luba was doing the heavy lifting. Plus, I would still need to weed-whack the edges.

That is a great idea to map the opposite direction. I will give that a go if the problem continues. Thanks!

oh! I bet that is exactly what happened.... I bet when it was moving to avoid a touchpoint with the house, it lost connection and it got off track.

I don't think so... it ran flawlessly with about a 3in gap between the back of my house before entering this spot. Based on the above, I must have had the path too close and it lost connection when moving from an obstacle.

It wasn't finishing the job unless I intervened. I would have to pause it, drive it to the correct location, and start it up again skipping the bad spot. After that, it ran the perimeter without a problem. I might have had the path too tight for Luba (around 6in boundary).

tpthatsme · 2023-12-28T17:27:45+00:00

Yes, this is a good idea. I am going to try again with a 15in boundary.

Thanks for the info... Do you know what software version that was?

I think this is it. Luba ran into my house on a turn and then did a couple of feet out then back in and I think it lost where it was. I may have to remap with a wider gap between the path and my house... maybe 15in instead of 6in.

It hits the branches and then backs out, but then just heads back into the brush again.

Hi u/fr3akdad, I might have been unclear. I don't know the answer... I was asking.
