Outline Project overview Project-specific success criteria Block diagram Component selection rationale Packaging design Schematic and theory of operation PCB layout Software design/development status Project completion timeline Questions / discussion
Project Overview The design project Wall-E Prototype I is an intelligent automated trash collecting robot with obstacle detection capability. The robot responses to either user’s direct manual control, or the object tracking software, to locate and collect the targeted trash object.
Project-Specific Success Criteria An ability to recognize a ping pong ball (38mm / 1.58inch diameter hollow sphere) An ability to control the speed and direction of the robot An ability to pick up a ping pong ball off the ground An ability to navigate around an obstacle when moving forward An ability to indicate the remaining battery charge via LED array
Component Selection Rationale Microcontroller
Component Selection Rationale Required: VIN = 12 V Vout = 3.3 V Voltage Regulator
Component Selection Rationale Fuel Gauge (BQ2010) Battery chemical: Ni-MH Simple setup method Support stand-alone applications Support LED array display Simple communication protocol (one-wire DQ)
Motor and servo control circuit Mechanical Arm Servo (5V DC) Motors (12V DC) Dual L298 H-Bridge (12V DC+ 5V DC onboard regulator)
Component Selection Rationale Ultrasonic Sensor (LV-MaxSonar EZ1) 42kHz Ultrasonic sensor Operates from 2.5-5.5V Low 2mA supply current Analog Output - 10mV/inch
Component Selection Rationale Xbee Low Power Consumption (63mW) Long Transmission Range (Indoor: 90m) Enough Baud Rate (9600 bps normally) for our project Free X-CTU Software for testing
