The robot overlord (BOXCAR) is coming together

15 December 2012 - 10:35 PM

Some parts came in from adafruit 2 days ago. I now have all of this working together:

1 LCD over I2C
1 Sonic Distance sensor (digital d6,d7)
2 Continuious Servos (wheels) (I2C)
1 Micro Server (steering) (I2C) Not yet hooked to steer
On Board Ethernet

All integrated into my N2+


I am using these:

https://www.adafruit.com/products/167
https://www.adafruit.com/products/276
https://www.adafruit.com/products/368

I am very happy with everything from ADAFRUIT!!!

Attached is a picture of the prototype - BOXCAR (it's in a box B) )

I have also attached the source code. There is lots of pieces fom all over in there and the code needs lots of work - but it is a proof of concept right now.

There are more pictures and a video at my skydrive.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I'll post updates as it comes along. My son wants to add a camera and a wifi module so we can connect to the car and "see".

Netduino Plus 2 RGB LED PWM Sample

24 November 2012 - 06:26 PM

This all started because I have this kit: http://www.seeedstud....html?cPath=138

And I wanted to get this sample working: http://www.seeedstud...k:_Tricolor_LED

I used a few pieces of code to compile this sample. Thanks goes out to everyone working on educating folks on how to work with all this.

I do NOT know electronics so please feel free to point out any issues you see.

NOTE change the last parm from true to false if you are using a cathode type RGB LED and connect
the cathode to the ground. I have not tested that as I only have an Anode LED.
