Process of Project

Some of the hardware has not been ready for collection, we managed to test the component we collected to ensure their normal operation. During the process of testing, the fundamental code of some modules has been programmed.

HC-SR504

Circuit building:

Testing:



MPU6050

Soldering:

Circuit building:

Testing

We also tested the operation of the motor driver and servo motor.

Problem and Concern:

1. We ran a test on two of our gyroscopes today, however, neither of them can print out ideal data. Due to the fact that an MPU6050 we borrowed from another group operated normally when running our code, we speculated that our gyroscope might be damaged. We will run more tests on other gyroscopes next week to solve the problem.
2. Lacking components impeded our process of both hardware integration and programming. 

Work in week 2 

1. Finish the integration of hardware. (provided that the rest of the components are ready for collection)
2. Finish the code for motor control, distant control, and gyroscope control.

Gesture Control Robotic Smart Car

图片
Introduction: The project aims to build a robotic car with two models. One is to move based on the hand gesture of the user with a control device on it, and the other is to detect obstacles in the front and make the best turn according to range detection.  In general, the product consists of two parts, the car and the controller that controls it, both based on the Arduino board. The gyroscope integrated on Arduino 1, which is on the glove, will record the movement of the user's hand and transmit it to Arduino 2 on the car so that the motion control is realized. Meanwhile, the servo motor and ultrasonic sensor will realize the range obstacle-avoid function.

 24 /02/2022 Attendance: Yuang Du Zhenhe Gao Shibo Wang Zhongning Wang Dengwei Sun Erxing Ren Alessandro Pausilli Process of Project We firstly realized some auxiliary functions such as LED display and model switch. Then we finished the final hardware assembly of the car and controller. Finally, we combined the code and finished the function test, which lasted almost 5 days. LED Display We managed to make a LED display work today, which will be equipped on the controller to display the calibration reminder and current model. The circuit is shown in Figure 1 in which "Hello, world" is printed on the screen. Figure 1. Circuit of LED Display The LED is programmed to display calibration instructions and inform the user of the current model. Change the I2C When the servo motor is used with the transmitter at the same time, the head file "Servo.h" is incompatible with "virtualWire.h", so we replaced "Servo.h" with "ServoTimer2.h". Mode Switch...
