Project Development Areas:
1. Wireless Transceiver interfacing
Tasks:
- Acquire the wireless transceiver
- Successfully configure it to interface it with a development board to send/receive data to some source.
Team Members: Scott Stack, Kin Chin Chua
2. Camera interfacing
Tasks:
- Acquire the camera and materials to create a breakout board
- Solder a breakout board
- Figure out how read the image data coming from the camera
- Interface to it with a development board and use the LCD on the development board to display the camera image.
Team Members: Jason Holmes, Chris Romanoff
3. Peripheral interfacing and Website Development
Tasks1:
- Write code to initialize the I/O ports to make use of the IR voltages and pushbutton signals.
- Interface to the motors on the tank and write code to control them
- Begin development of a website that will be able to communicate with the vehicle.
Team Members: Michael Piercy, Matthew Guenette
