Things that need to be done for Baxter Adam- Change things to use rospy.log instead of print - done for tracker_heartbeat.py Adam- Fix shutdown and restart of kinect -Should probably change self.delay_start to 2 min or 3 min in tracker_heartbeat.py Adam- Meta-mode controller -Service-based to change the mode, publishes a latched topic whenever mode is changed -Modes are things like: baxter shutdown motors, baxter turn on motors, etc. Jon- "Low-Pass filter" for hand raise to trigger baxter -Wait ~0.5-1s and see if hand is raised the whole time Jon- Have motors turn off in a 'better' position Jon- Speed up process of getting into each demo -Arms move at the same time -Remove 'clicking' of gripper etc Longer-term Smarter handling of Kinect -Shut down kinect or skeleton tracker entirely if no one is nearby -Use headcam or other webcam to detect changes in scene (a.k.a.) people nearby -Then start back up, only do "full restart" of kinect if skeleton tracker won't start up properly Smarter shutdowns at night -Run a chron job to shutdown everything at night and start everything in the morning
