  2. Outline • Project Summary • Review of Previous Work • Division of Labor • Datasheet and Parts • Design Changes • Progress Update • Schedule

  3. Project Summary • The main objective is to design the Rover for long battery life that must last 7 days without recharging. • The Rover will use PC104 to control the interface among the user and the Rover and high level software. • It will also use the MicroPac 535 microprocessor to control low level software such as the motors for motion, the sonar system, and the battery level. • The user will be able to enter a specific distance, move a predetermined distance, or rotate the Rover to get a preferred direction. • The user will be able to move the Rover with the use of their direction keys. The Rover will move in a constant direction until the key is released

  4. Previous Work • 2002 • Rob Shockency and Randall Satterthwaite • Robotic Platform Design • EMAC 8051 and a CPLD • Design Goals 1. Create Cheaper version of Telerobotics 2001 2. Upgradeable and expandable in the future

  9. Parts and Price List

  10. Design Changes • Replaced Linux based operating system with Windows based operating system • Video Card was incompatible with Linux although manufacturer stated the card was compatible • Linux operating system was not stable on PC-104 board

  11. Design Changes • Flash Memory Card and PCMCIA Hard drive replaced by Laptop Hard drive • Flash Memory Card was not capable of booting the PC-104 at start-up • PCMCIA Hard drive was not visible by computer until system completed start-up sequence • Laptop Hard drive booted easier and still remained low power
