VelocirUABtor v2

Competition line follower developed with the UAB Physical Computing Communitiy sponsorhip.

Built With

In order to work in the project we recommend to use:

• Atom - IDE.
• PlatformIO - Framework used to work with Teensy 3.2 that can be integrated in Atom.
• GitKraken - Multiplatform Git client.
• Procesing - Language used to develop the user interface.
• Fritzing - Tool used to design the hardware connections.

Main Components

• ADXL335 - Accelerometer.
• HC-05 - Bluetooth Module.
• Pololu Magnetic Encoders - Encoders for micrometal motors.
• TB6612FNG - Motor Driver.
• Reflectance Sensor Array - Array of 8 IR sensors used to detect the track.
• Teensy 3.2 - 32 bit ARM processor.

User Interface

The microcontroller builds JSON frames with the sensors values that are transmitted to the laptop using the HC-05 module.
