This demo project is for controlling RC Cars built with Arduino Board.
[XRobot Mobile] is a .NET MAUI application.
This project utilizes the following packages:
1 - Plugin.BLE (for Bluetooth communication)
2 - ReactiveUI (for MVVM, realtime data)
3 - SkiaSharp (for creating custom controls)
[ XRobot uController ] is an AVR assembly code (I also included a C language version) for controlling a robot car via Bluetooth (serial port communication) and reading an analog sensor.
This code is written for ATmega328P uController only.
These are a few useful links :
This project utilizes the following features:
1 - Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART)
2 - Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
3 - Analogue to Digital Converter (ADC)
XRobot uses serial communication to send packets and receive data from the RC robot.
-
The validation uses a basic xor operation between packets to ensure the validity of the packet.
-
Commands are used to specify to control the movement of the robot and reading from the robot.
-
Data slots are used to carry additional information (e.g., direction and speed).
-
You need Arduino installed in your machine (need
avrdudefor flashing). -
You need Powershell 6.1 at minimum installed.
1 - Clone the repo locally on your machine and open a Powershell window in the root folder.
2 - Copy the following commands and run in Powershell (press tab for autocomplete):
. .\run.ps1
Install-XRobot -Port COM3 -Upload
These are the components needed.
1- Ardunio Uno Board (or any board with Atmega328p).
2-Cytron Shield L298P Motor Driver with GPIO.
3- Bluetooth Serial Transceiver HM-10
4- Chassis with Two Motors
5- Power Source (for example. lipo-power-shield).
