GPS CAR Jesus Uribes Daniel Benjamin Sydney Ackerman
Accomplishments • Completed GPS guided RC car and is functioning properly • The car making its way around the R4 parking lot with only minimal help. • Finished code for the HC12 and its operation of the car. • How good the car looks, even with so much going on in the insides.
Correction Left Tunnel Straight Path of Car Half Turn Path of Car Slight Turn Center Line Path of Car We used concatenation for more accurate turning and more variation in corrections. Right Tunnel
Code Flowchart Average 8 Points Set Tunnels and Centerline GO, and get new data Check if at or past waypoint YES Full Turn Left NO
Code Flowchart (cont.) Check if at or past waypoint GO, and get new data NO Outside Check with left tunnel Correct Right Inside Correct Left Inside Check with right tunnel Outside
Power Flow Chart 9.6 V HC12 Servo PWM Signal Voltage Regulator Two Separate Batteries PWM Signal 9.6 V H-Bridge Motor Amplified PWM Signal
Observations During Testing • The GPS points shifted from day to day and also ever so often during the day. • Also had to change points for different speeds due to sample rate slowing in relation to car speed. • Every once in a while the car would receive a bad point and correct even though it was in the center for the tunnel.
Plans for next week • Finish final report and turn it in. • Final advisor presentation. • Then we are finished.
