Mooba cleans up in Second Life

Here is Mooba and one of his Roombas in Second Life. SL has been getting quite a bit of press lately so we decided to check it out.

Of course we had to create a SL Roomba or SLoomba. The SLoomba was programmed using the scripting language in Second Life, LSL with algorithms based on those in Joe Jones' (one of the original Roomba creators) book "Robot Programming: A Practical Guide to Behavior-Based Robotics."

The SLoomba acts very much like a real life Roomba. Its motion is not pre-determined at all so you can place it in any environment and watch it vacuum!!

If you have a Second Life account, look for Mooba (there is only one in SL), and we can go Roomba a room or two. Need a Second Life account ... grab one here.
