This Candii Robot Guide extends the Candi Robot Guide. Although Candi was designed for the 2007 IGVC, she will be used once again in 2008. However, she will have a sparkling new personality (electronics and software), so she is now Candii.
Contents
Devices
Below is a diagram showing the flow of data between the various robot controller components.
Needs correction:
- GPS communicates over COM2(/dev/ttyS1)
- Time server (NTP) runs on the TS board reading the Data Carrier Detect (DCD) line of COM2
- Add: TS Board is running an NTP server to define robot time
- Software modules should be included
- Rename "Arduino" -> "Motor Arduino"
- Add "Power Arduino"
- Fix: Wheel Encoders will be communicating over SPI
Software
Our code for this year is stored in Subversion and is accessible at https://svn.robojackets.org/igvc/2008. The laptop codebase will be written in C++.
Contributers to the laptop codebase should ensure that they are following our coding conventions.
Player/Stage
We are using the Player/Stage robot server as the communication layer between our device drivers and our processing/controlling software modules.
As we've used the Player server, occasionally we've needed to patch it to better suit our needs. Below are our custom patches:
IGVC Divisions of Responsibility
These links will go to pages detailing each part of the design. Division leaders should start filling these in.
