Goal Setting Project Overview Functional Objectives Learning Objectives

Innovative development Radio Frequency vs. Internet Internet vs. Network Computer vs. IP Camera

Goal Setting Innovative Development Design Development Research Products

Project Overview Expanding the range of a remote control car Control car over network, similar to a printer Be able to have first person view of car’s

location Build something cool

ObjectivesGoal Setting

Functional Objectives Establish connection between RC car and

driver’s computer Get real time visual feed Control RC car User friendly GUI

Learning Objectives Understand Wireless Communication

Efficient methods of sending and receiving data Embedded Systems

Requirements

Necessary Components Car Camera Microprocessor User’s PC

RequirementsThe Car

3 Leads: Ground Vcc

Pulse width modulation

RequirementsThe Car

Square Pulse wave of 1.0-2.0ms repeats every ~20ms

Width of pulse determines the position of the servo with 1.5ms as the normal center

The amplitude of the pulse is from the reference level to the Vcc

Vcc = 4.6-6.0V

RequirementsThe Car

Power: 5.1 V DC, max 3.5 W

Alarm output (motion, audio, external)

Open API for software integration

CPU, video processing and compression; Ram: 32MB Flash: 8MB

RequirementsIP Camera

Receives and translates signals from the transistor output of the IP camera

Sends translated signals to steering box and speed control

Programmed with C and Assembly

RequirementsMicroprocessor

DragonFly12

Processing Can communicate

directly to RTSP server on camera

Have an instance of a client

Microprocessor

Using a microprocessor (MC9S12DP256) has a clock signal rate of 24MHz has registers for a Pulse Width Modulator and

an Enhanced Capture Timer

ImplementationCode Review – Part III

Problems we encountered…. Getting camera feed displayed on GUI Axis not being any help whatsoever

Many emails, one helpful reply Setting up a cross compiler for the camera

Tried six distributions of Ubuntu Create cross compiler with build root and uclibc Creating cross compiler using gcc

Broken Ubuntu installations Fixing Axis cross compiler

Tried creating our own cross compiler Used build root and

Triggering camera alarm fast enough Output activation took around 0.1 seconds using program on camera Solved using hexdump, Google, and Beagle

Putting code onto DragonFly12 Can’t download from CodeWarrior directly CodeWarrior s19 file has to be converted for the DragonFly12

Camera not cooperating

Future Development

What could we do if we had more time? Put everything on a separate car with reverse

(maybe need to explain why we’re using this car with no reverse in the first place)

With above ability, apply backtracking idea? (application of a stack storing commands of steering and compliments of speed)

Wireless strength monitor?
