Does anyone need help docking the Create?

A video of the iRobot Create docking on its homestation can be found on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nORB0KtOpzE. Notice that both the laptop and iRobot Create begin charging once docked.

Whats special about this algorithm is that it can dock a robot with a heavy payload (such as in the video).

The source code for the algorithm can be found at http://irobotcreate.com.

Hi Daniel,

Sorry that the website is down. I am in the process of moving it back to the SourceForge servers. You can download/view the source at http://sourceforge.net/projects/emssframework.

This might be a more direct help:

http://emssframework.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/emssframework/trunk/Core/Navigation/Weight/DockWeight.h?view=markup

Also, you can read how it works in the documentation (PDF)
