Testing out deleting branches. i2c works and this branch is no longer needs to be used.
checking for error from vision function in server
Created the i2cplugnplay project and copied important files over. Will flesh out the API and figure out everything later.
Fixed battery bars
robot now abandons seeking if receives a new command
cleanup and colonet debugging
Fixed small bug in Colonet Data Requester
added a newline to a print
Trying to debug wireless problems
encoders might work now
added some comments
changed orbs to use binary constants to see if its fixed
Troubleshooting orb driver code on new charge stations. Currently unable to write to pins.
It worked in initial trials without the orbit code, and worked a couple of times after the addition of the orbit code. Still not stable though.
ran two tests with the same battery, same conditions, different inductor.The numbers are looking somewhat iffy, but workable.
added some prints that are commented out with DEBUGGING PRINT above it that can be uncommented out later for debugging purposes
did we do anything else?
added orb driver code for new charging station
added folder for charging station drivers
no explosions! removed hack from ConstantCharging.c and ran a test w/ the medium inductor, no freq hack, and saved it in data
Updated Makefile for CGI access
Fixed exception handling ambiguity in colonetcgi helper app
updated aaai citation on Thought paper
Added Makefile for HTTP access
Added JavaScript file for HTTP access
Added iPhone access page
More HTTP access files
Added preliminary files for HTTP colonet interface
Apparently there were changes to bom.c and bom.h since the last time the library was compiled.
delay_ms has been rewritten to use _delay_loop_2 which is a 4 cycle implementation of a delay written in assembly. This is questionably more accurate but does not use floating point to make delays anymore. ...
added all previous SURG papers (under trunk/pub/papers/SURG)
General work on SLAM
Modified version of the AAAI paper for Thought.
Added the magnetic encoder datasheet.
Updated iterator code to for-each loops
Fixed some logical and typo errors in documentation
The changes in bom and dragonfly_lib are the result of me and James rehashing the bom driver code. This now includes the updated analog reading, and control of the BOM1.5's emitter selection capability. The emitter selection has been verified, but I had to change the way reading the detectors works, so that needs to be re-tested for BOM and BOM1.5
turned down speed on smart_run_around...recharging seemed to work better (very subjective, I admit). cannot attempt demo video until wireless issues are figured out (i.e. wireless "button press").
bigger inductor seems to not work without the freq hack
BFS worked in 2 out of many trials with 2 robots. However, it dropped wireless a lot and changes states more than it should.
Robot vector controller works, with motor status diagram
added tricolor datasheet in htm form
Had to use a different schematic for the orbs since we ordered from a different company. everything is updated accordingly
adding graphical display for robot motor status
added single-instruction commands for robot movement
removed old code
added a define value for the change in direction used by the fsm.code worked in my trail w/ robot 1 as the decoy, robo 7 as the driver
finished my lights driver, but it doesn't work; it turns the lights on to one color, and they stay that way, no matter what.
bfs_fsm without the orbit behavior at the end
wireless library now times out instead of infinitely looping in waiting for ok
Updated bom.c and bom.h to implement James' changes for BOM1.5
Automatic repaint
orbit code
removed build dir
top level makefile for colonet
Changed applet appearance to enable Aqua look and feel on Macs
potentially functional SPI driver, will test tonight
more broken code
Added the panelization information. Basically this is all you need to send to 33each or whatever fab place to get it made. panelization.txt has info about the layout, also updated shopping_list.xls to have the right USB connector, and added parts.txt which is a list from the eagle layout, and usb_conn.pdf.
Applet requests battery readings from all visible robots
Shopping list, header library, final layout. Silkscreen layer is values
updated comments for BOM wrapper functions. no compiler warnings since they just call the new code.
added a 'make run' command to run the applet on optimusprime
removed data print; changed ip addr
More testing. Transmission is messed up.
Read the datasheet again and I think we had things out of order. Reversed the order but didn't test yet.
Close to final layout
fixed a null pointer exception
battery meters should work
added iterator code to replace looping (should be thread safe)
reorganized some code
updated readme more
updated readme
code optimizations for applet
messing with fonts in client
Recopied original template file that didn't have experiments in it.
Branch Clean-up.
Creation of branch for work with new charge stations.
Cleaning up accidental branch.
failed attempt to fix colonet robot code
fixed various runtime exceptions in the applet
Board is now updated with probable final layout locations, now just need to route :(
EXPLOSION! aka the boards are now testable and hopefully won't explode next time.ConstantCharging.c currently has the frequency hackthe two data files are real battery tests
Modified spi.c/h. Sends 1 packet before failing. Funny light blinking thing happens when sending, no idea where that came from. It looks like the orbs are used as transmit lights but there's no code for that as far as I know.
Fixed robot selection
worked on lights driver, set up everything except a sort and a time-split calculating method
Lights branch
fixed exception on disconnect in client
Further work on SLAM...
battery code now works
spaces to tabs in colonet client
Non-working update to wireless, sending separate packet for passing the token.
fixed a bug caused because when you insert into a C++ map when the key already exists, it ignores it instead of replacing the value with the new value
removed any conflict with other fsm variables.added tentative orbit stop, which needs encoders to be accurate.
more colonet client cleanup
wrote some code to smooth robot identification across frames to help stop falsely losing robotschanged the vision thresholds
separate file for RobotIcon in client
fixed NPE in client
more cleanup of client
change battery() to battery8()
made a copy
