  6. Input movement commands Human/Computer Interface I/O Speaker Serial Port Output pertinent data Keypad Robot Car Movement Hardware Wheel turning servos Commands Micro controller RoboBoard – 68HC11 Memory Wheels Map of surroundings Wheel Motors Path finding algorithm -interpret data from sensors/rangefinders/compass -determine path to take -determine how-far/direction to move -update old map data with new data -account for inaccuracies from range finder -account for imprecise movements -execute contingency plans(back away from wall) -find shortest path (optional) Commands Range finder mount Input Stepper Motor Sonar range finder Shaft encoder Bumper sensor Electronic Compass Outside world

  10. Software Details • Programming in ICWIN • Interpreted at runtime • Programming in Assembly • Compiled with AS11_IC batch file • Assembly routines are converted to machine language • Assembly routine names are registered in the library (ICB) file for use in C

  11. Interactive C Environment

  12. Interactive C Cont.

  13. Functions in ICWIN

  14. Library Files • robo.lis • robolib.c • theme.c • main.c • analog.icb • roboir.lis • roboir.icb • roboir.c

  15. Library Files Cont. • ints.lis • ints.c • myint.icb • servo.lis • servo.c • servo.icb • cmotor.c

  16. Major Results Obtained • Communicating with the RoboBoard via our own cables • Cool robot chassis with continual design enhancements • Autonomy (programmable hardware, battery power) • Movement (motors and wheels) • User-friendly interaction (keypad, switches, etc.)

  17. Major Modifications to Original Plan • Will not be able to rotate in place • Will weigh 15 pounds instead of 10 pounds • Ultrasonic range finder, not laser • Will only use 2 motors for the wheels, not 6 • Will only use 1 servo, not 4 • Reassignment of responsibilities

  18. Major Problems Encountered • We had to search out Windows-oriented Interactive C software • Interface cables were faulty, and this took a while to figure out (had to create our own interface cables) • Details on the RoboBoard’s registers are hard to ascertain (we have to figure out details by analyzing previously written code) • We are still waiting on our range finder and electronic compass
