Installing Python Robotics (Pyro) (VIDEO)

[www.pyrorobotics.org]: Pyro comes from the acronym Py-thon and Ro-botics. The goal of the Pyro project is to provide a programming environment that is easy to explore and that lets you work on advanced topics in artificial intelligence  and robotics, without having to worry about the low-level details of the underlying hardware. Pyro is used for real robotics research, as well as for teaching material.

Its main features are the following:

• It is open source, available for study or modification.

• Designed for students, teachers and researchers.

• It works on many real robotic platforms and simulators.

• The course modules are broad, covering control methods, vision (motion tracking, blobs, etc.), learning (neural networks, reinforcement learning, self-organizing maps, etc.), evolutionary algorithms, and much more.

This "Video Tutorial" shows the step-by-step installation of Pyro for Windows XP, although it will also be valid for the most recent version.
