News about the electronics of MyzharBot
A new photo gallery is available: the NVidia Jetson TK1 is now mounted on the upper horizontal base and powered by the 12V generated by the programmable DC-DC converter. Now it’s time to port the software on the new board and to start to create Computer Vision algorithms!!!
A new rendering is available: MyzharBot is now at version 3.1.1. The new brain, NVidia Jetson TK1, fits perfectly on the electronics base and a transparent protection has been designed. Now its time to cut the protection with the laser machine and to mount the new brain onboard.
Today I realized a simple Laser Cut protection for the NVidia Jetson TK1 board. Now I’m designing a plane to fix it onboad of MyzharBot 😀
Computer Vision needs full computational power to run real time algorithms for robotics application… now MyzharBot has got it: NVidia Jetson TK1 has arrived. The new brain is powered by a Tegra K1 SOC (4-Plus-1 quad-core ARM Cortex A15 CPU at 2.3 Ghz + Kepler GPU with 192 CUDA cores) the most…
Finally the sonar module PCB is ready to be sent to service to be CREATED. Me and Mauro Soligo have chosen a name for it: RoboDiscovery-F4. We also decided to dedicate a website also to this project: www.robodiscovery.com is coming. Features: 2 strips to fit STm32F4-Discovery board Zigbee ready 16x muxed…
With Mauro Soligo from katodo.com we are creating a support card for STM32F4-Discovery to handle up to 16 modules sonar (HC-SR04) for robotics applications. MyzharBot will use only 4 sonar sensors, but larger robots will be able to leverage the power of the new board. As usual the board is…
Finally after a lot of waiting MyzharBot has got its own BeagleBone Black. The new “brain” will run the “Speech Module” based on Sphinx Toolkit by Carnegie Mellon University and in future will be the “main node” for ROS platform. A lot of news are ready to come… stay tuned with MyzharBot
The new chassis is almost ready… motors and mechanics of the tracks are still missing, but the impact of the black colour is really good.
RoboController board is on the crowdfunding platform Technofunding
The RoboController is a board designed to perform the function of advanced motor control in all those applications where you need a RealTime control of two DC motors with encoder feedback and the capabilities of communication with a control unit which can be higher than a personal computer.
Added the new Electronics sections. It will contains the descriptions of the electronics used for MyzharBot and each connection scheme.
