  1. Autonomous Rescue Vehicle(Team 10) Team members: Julia Liston, VipulBhat, KrithikaIyer, Ruiyang Lin

  2. Project Overview • Our team’s goal is to build a prototype of a robot that can: • Use GPS to locate a lost person • Autonomously navigate towards the person • Lead him or her back to a safe location, which is the starting location of the robot

  3. PSSCs • An ability to move and steer using appropriate motors and drive systems • An ability to transmit GPS coordinates from the rescue-point transceiver to the robot via an RF module • An ability to receive and process GPS coordinates on the robot and move toward the given coordinates • An ability to detect obstacles and navigate around them using ultrasonic sensors. • An ability to monitor the battery level of the robot

  6. Component Selection

  7. Component Selection (Continued) • Microcontroller • 2 PWM • 2 UART • Minimum 4 ATD • Minimum 14 digital I/O pins • Fast to handle data input (At least 32-bit preferably, with CPU at least 50MHz) • 3.3 V operating voltage • Final choice: PIC32MX120F032B for Robot and for the rescue point transceiver.

  8. Component Selection (Continued) • Motors • Enough torque to handle rugged terrain • Steady state current relatively low to reduce power • Built-in gear box to simplify design • Chose: Dagu 25D Motor with 34:1 Gearbox • GPS receiver • Accurate locating capability • Relatively inexpensive • Communicate through UART • Chose: ADH Technology - GPS-11571 • RF module • Long range communication (6 miles) • Conform to FCC requirements • Chose: Digi International Inc - XBP09-DPSIT-156

  9. Component Selection (Continued) • Ultrasonic Sensors: • Easy to use • ATD • High Resolution • Cost-effective • Chose: Maxbotix LV-EZ4 • H Bridge • Delivers up to 5 A continuous • Low turn-on resistance • Built-in circuit protection • Chose: TLE5206

  10. Packaging • Constraints • Traverse rugged terrain • Lightweight and Sturdy • Room for PCB and off chip peripherals • Minimize cost • Looks cool
