Examples of practical applications of BASIC Stamp controller
Some applications of the BASIC Stamp controller • …. • Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden - lab robot camera- you can see whats happening in their laboratory over the web. http://mac5.pe.chalmers.se • Hugh MacMillan Rehabilitation Centre, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, has a project using the STAMP to control an artificial hand for young amputees
Stamp Interfacing • A Robotic bug built by Greg Birdsall and Fred Richards for the X-files uses a BASIC Stamp controller
The Pocket-Bot Robot platform • This miniature robotic vehicle has independent four wheel drive and bumper sensors. • Kits are also available for sensing heat or light and for following a line. http://www.divent.com/pocketbot.html

Emminence Airship Project Purpose of this Project: • A fun and exciting learning opportunity Practical Applications • Advertising • Scientific Research • Military and Police • Telecommunications
Physical Design of the Airship • One or more spherical balloons • A plastic gondola to house the electrical equipment • Helium used to fill the balloons
How it Works • User gives commands through a PC keyboard • These commands are relayed through the RF transceivers to the blimp • The blimps on-board intelligence interprets the commands and performs the corresponding functions
The Ground to Air Transmission • The Basic Stamp II gives the transmitter the appropriate bit pattern • The On-Board Stamp then receives the bit pattern from the receiver • Based on the bit pattern received, the Stamp will set the appropriate bits high or low
The On-Board Stamp is interfaced with the motor driver circuit • Propeller motors are used • There is an enable and a fwd/bwd signal for each motor The Motors
Onboard System • Subsystems controlled by CPU GPS Video Compass Motion Control Processor Motion Control Circuitry Central Processor
Internet Based Operations • Operator connects to operation station to assume control PC PC Operation Station PC PC
Reusable Software Design • Robot software specification defined according to system capabilities. • Operator software uses robot specification to coordinate data channels. • Central Mission Control Stations allow for control of robots around the world.
DataTurbine Developer API • Data sources are coordinated and mapped to operator
Robot Software Architecture • Built on Windows OS • Developers API for data transmission with TCP/IP • Interface for operator received controls • Autonomous mission platform Autonomy Application Coordination Application Data Turbine Operating System

Lego Robotics Kits Easy to prototype Must make your own IR sensors Programming Languages: Logo Not Quite C
Custom Made Mouse Can choose the individual components Can achieve better performance over kits Much more satisfying and fun • Main components: • Microcontroller board • Wall sensors • Motors • Batteries
Propulsion choices DC Motors Servos Stepper Motors • DC Motors • Cheap, small • Need gearbox • Need shaft encoders • H-Bridge • Discrete • SGS Thompson L293D • Can drive two motors • 600mA per motor
Propulsion Servos Need to modify for continuous rotation Need shaft encoders Can be driven without H-Bridge Come with attachments Perfect for Basic Stamp • Stepper Motors • Less torque than DC motors for a given size and weight • Do not need shaft encoders • LSI chips can handle logic and power • Allegro UCN5804LB • 1.25 A • 35 V

Why use microcontrollers in Sculptures? • To sense and respond to viewer’s actions • To sense and respond to environmental changes • To sequence events • To set up contingencies • To control motion, light, sound
Problems to solve • reverse directions of two motors at particular points in their travel • ensure that the moving arms don’t become and remain synchronized
PIC is used to: • check when the motors have hit their CW and CCW limit switches • reverse the motors’ direction • add a little delay to the time it takes one of the motors to reverse directions in order to prevent synchronization
#include <12c509.h> #use delay(clock=4000000) void main () {set_tris_b(0b001111); //four lines are inputs, two are outputs while (1) { if(input(pin_B0)==0) // if cwLampLimit is touched {output_high(pin_B4);} // activate lampMotorRelay} if(input(pin_B1)==0) // if ccwLampLimit is touched {output_low(pin_B4);} // de-activate lampMotorRelay} if(input(pin_B2)==0) // if cwShieldLimit is touched {output_high(pin_B5); // activate shieldMotorRelay delay_ms(500); } //wait half a second to ensure //non-synchronous movement if(input(pin_B3)==0) // if ccwShieldLimit is touched {output_low(pin_B5);} // de-activate shieldMotorRelay} }}
