Simulator (and ROS) - Alex¶
- Not super much done
- Leon developed some good teleop code, but will still tailor it so we can control the scouts better.
Board - Abe¶
- Progress
- Routed more of updated Scoutfly circuit
- Power test board
- Determined that board failed initially due to voltage regulator rated for supply voltage lower than battery voltage
- Also observed more weirdness in pushbutton controller
- Acquired voltage regulators with higher input voltage rating and more pushbutton controllers
- Testing in progress, no definitive results yet
- Goals for next week
- Get pretty close to finishing Scoutfly routing
- Get pushbutton controller working and bootloader on AVR
Low-level Software - Ben¶
- Progress
- Meeting Feb. 2
- Discussed Interrupts
- Set deadlines
- Goals for Wednesday
- Have documentation on ARM GPIO
- Have documentation on AVR GPIO
