Introduction For our final project in ECE 4760: Digital Systems Design Using Microcontrollers, we designed and implemented a radio-controlled, map-learning, line-following robot. The robot traverses a map of lines with a configuration that is initially unknown to a user. The robot discovers different types of intersections in the map and reports them to a base
We’ve implemented an autonomous pursuit vehicle capable of chasing a designated target using ultrasonic transmissions. The system is demonstrated by chasing a second, human-controlled, RC car. The pursuit unit is equipped with a 24kHz transmitter and two 40kHz receivers, while the target unit has a 24kHz receiver and a 40kHz transmitter. The target unit responds

Introduction: What is Space Invasion: Space Invasion is a game in which a spaceship has to pass through the walls, without crashing. There are monsters trying to kill the spaceship. So the spaceship has to destroy them before getting destroyed. The game has no end, it is point based. The spaceship has two different types

For our 4760 final project, we built a virtual bowling game interface on a black and white Television in which the ball can be controlled by the glove which has the flex sensors and the accelerometer attached to it. There are 5 flex sensors on the glove to detect the ball grasped and the ball
This lesson introduces the basic concepts of TinyOS and the nesC language in which the system is written. It includes a quick overview of the nesC language concepts and syntax to help you get started with programming in this environment. Introduction The TinyOS system, libraries, and applications are written in nesC, a new language for

This is the final project for ECEN1400: Introduction to Digital and Analog with Professor Alex Fosidck at University of Colorado at Boulder (Spring 2017). The goal of this project was to make a ball full of sensors which could detect changes in its environment and alert its operator. The ball consists of a custom printed

1.1 Introduction Line following car is a system that traces black lines on white surfaces. There arevarious sensing methods available to sense these lines. The choice of these schemesdepends upon sensing accuracy and required flexibility. In my project, I have used 6 TxLEDs and 6 IR sensors to accurately calculate the position of the robot
