Wireless Robot Control v1.0

★ Embedded-to-desktop control with vision.
Problem

Remotely drive/monitor a multi-motor robot with obstacle awareness and visual tracking.

System approach

Firmware fuses 4 sonars + Pixy vision (SPI) + motor current/temp into a framed serial protocol; C# desktop app.

Architecture
Arduino Mega NewPing x4 Pixy vision SPI C#/.NET custom serial protocol
Results
  • ↑4-direction ultrasonic sensing
  • ↑Pixy object tracking over SPI
  • ↑Current+temp telemetry
  • ↑C# GUI; 3 firmware iterations
Stack
