Pegasus - Mini Smart Vehicle

Model self driving car using the Udoo board. Part of the Industrial IT project at http://cse.gu.se/english/education/se180credits

Full instructions provided5,606

Things used in this project

Hardware components

UDOO DUAL

Main controller board

Arduino UNO

Used for reading sensors and sending their values to the Udoo and interfacing the servo and the ESC.

SRF08 Ultrasonic Sensor

Any cheap hobbyist sensor would be usable.

Sharp IR sensor

Radio controlled model car complete with servos and ESC.

Most diy kits would be sufficient.

Story

A self driving model car based on the Udoo board and an additional Arduino Uno. It uses a simple webcam to navigate the track and an array of ultrasonic and IR sensors for obstacle detection. It is all modeled and simulated in the Open Davinci framework. The architecture of the car is based on the MSV framework by Christian Berger: christianberger.net/opendavinci

Main image processing is done using Open CV: opencv.org

This project is now finished, and the documentation is a bit in retrospect.

A vehicle with similar configurations is going to compete in Carolocup 2015: wiki.ifr.ing.tu-bs.de/carolocup

Camera mount was a bit experimental.

The skeleton of the model car used.

1 / 2 • Using images of the checkerboard to calculate how the camera distorts the image.

Stopping the monkey from typing on the keyboard. And thats good since monkeys don't understand c++
