Robotics Project S6

This course is a continuation of the Robot project from semester 5. Having produced the electronic control card for the robot students will apply the piloting software.

The course group is split into two units:

• Interface design, enabling the discovery of microcontroller architecture making up the robot’s brain (Microchip PIC18 ) and learning to write  driver peripheral devices useful for the robot.
• System design, which enables concrete execution of requested robotic functions through different contracts for each pair of students.
  

This course group has strong links with two other courses:

• Computer Science Concepts and Tools course , SAM1, which is their first discovery of 8 bit microcontroller architecture
• Robot Project S5, in which they discover the hardware environment of robots and are initiated in the electronic development of a robot control mastercard.
