  • Multi-Threaded architecture
  • Fuzzy logic
  • Real time systems

Operating Specifications

Code was written for RidgeSoft's IntelliBrain micro controler.

This micro controler was mounted on a modified Axial RC-car base (Unsure which specific model). This base was modified to have separate front and rear wheel steering.

Sensor Configuration

  • 5 Ping))) (ultrasonic range sensors) were used at pointed at 0, +-45 and +- 90 degrees from the front of the robot. Some trickery was needed here because the IntelliBrain only supported 4 pulse output devices so a relay was used to switch the signal wires for the East/West looking sensors.
  • 1 GPS unit Labled "Paralax GPS Reciever" (no link found)
  • 1 Rotation sensor (no link found). Was attached to the large driving output gear.
  • 1 Sensor for rear straight driving (yet to be implemented)
