# MoveToCode: A Mixed Reality Visual Programming Language
2+
3+
MoveToCode is an open source mixed reality visual programming language (VPL) created by the [Interaction Lab](http://robotics.usc.edu/interaction/) led by [Maja J Matric](https://robotics.usc.edu/~maja/index.html). The VPL is used to study [student kinesthetic curiostiy](https://tgroechel.github.io/kin_cur.html). The VPL can be thought of similar to [Scratch](https://scratch.mit.edu/) in 3D.
4+
5+
MoveToCode is built for the [Microsoft Hololens 2](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/hololens/hardware) using the [Mixed Reality Toolkit](https://github.com/microsoft/MixedRealityToolkit-Unity). Currently it is set up to work with the [Mayfield Kuri robot](https://www.heykuri.com/explore-kuri/) but can be modified for any [ROS](https://www.ros.org/) supported robot via [ROS#](https://github.com/siemens/ros-sharp) and [rosbridge](http://wiki.ros.org/rosbridge_suite).

Here is a [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7udZXa2wEw) of MoveToCode + a robot tutor.

## Study Commits
10+
Currently the study commit for all papers: [0765f1d1ab46373f1bc1be90d9d5b07fafc2a533](https://github.com/interaction-lab/MoveToCode/commit/0765f1d1ab46373f1bc1be90d9d5b07fafc2a533)

## Projects in Progress
13+
- Arrays
14+
- CodeBlock to Python Text
15+
- Robot speech via Amazon Polly
16+
- [Adding virtual robot arms](https://github.com/interaction-lab/KuriAugmentedRealityArmsPublic)

## General Structure
19+
20+
### Interpreter
21+
- Singleton class that reads/interprets connected codeblocks line-by-line from top to bottom, beginning at the "Start" codeblock.
22+
- Utilizes an instruction stack to ensure that the reaching the end of a codeblock control flow statement (if, while) does not end the program unless the stack is empty.
23+
24+
### Memory Manager
25+
- Singleton class that holds a list of buttons which spawn variables created by the user.
26+
- Visualizes changes in the values stored in variables as interpreter reads/runs code.
27+
28+
### IArgument
29+
- Abstract class from which all visual/block coding components are derived.
30+
- Of all the classes that inherit from IArgument, only the bottom classes/leaf nodes are non-abstract
31+
- Child classes - main partition for code blocks based on function
32+
- IDataType: All data types (primitive and derived) inherit from this class
33+
- int, float, string, bool, char, array
34+
- Instruction: All instructions inherit from this class
35+
- print, set variable value, conditionals, arithmetic
36+
