OASIS is a smart home operating system based on ROS 2.
OASIS currently specializes in computer vision, input streaming and general automation.
In my home I have a Kinect 2 and a bunch of poor quality laptop cameras.
I ported the Kinect 2 driver to ROS 2. I also run a background subtractor on all camera feeds courtesy of bgslibrary.
Kodi is my visual interface. I added Smart Home support so that it can show multiple ROS image topics.
Kodi is also my input interface. I connected a Bluetooth adapter to my NAS and it streams game controller input on a ROS topic.
Currently, I'm using my PS4 controller to control the speed of my childhood LEGO train. A Raspberry Pi subscribes to the input, and controls an Arduino connected to a robotics motor controller that drives the train's 9V motors.
To communicate with the Arduino, I added a complete Firmata implementation with additional support for temperature and humidity sensors, I2C, sonar, stepper motors, SPI, servos and CPU fans. The Firmata code is at oasis_avr/src/firmata.
I built a custom LEGO Train Power Station to house the motor controller, Raspberry Pi, and Arduino:
Here's a video walkthrough of the Power Station:
I'm using an Intel NUC to drive dual 50" TVs for the purpose of showing video artwork. The UI is again Kodi, running on the Wayland window manager, modified to span both displays.
Because it uses Kodi, virtually any video file can be played spanning both TVs:
When the train is in motion, a basic HUD (heads up display) fades in on top of the video artwork and shows some voltages and metrics.
