  1. This presentation will probably involve audience discussion, which will create action items. Use PowerPoint to keep track of these action items during your presentation • In Slide Show, click on the right mouse button • Select “Meeting Minder” • Select the “Action Items” tab • Type in action items as they come up • Click OK to dismiss this box • This will automatically create an Action Item slide at the end of your presentation with your points entered. Final Year Project - Progress PresentationWifi Controlled Robotics Mark Heneghan Electronic Engineering Dept.

  2. Status Summary • The project is slightly behind schedule but I am working hard to catch up again. • Project to be completed by March 21st. • The end goal is to have created a robotic vehicle, which can be controlled via Wifi using Gumstix, over the internet using a webpage. Electronic Engineering Dept.

  3. Progress • Have created, tested and fitted power supplies to Robot. • Have created opto-isolator circuits to protect hardware when using gpio. • Have made mechanical adjustments to robot, to allow it run smoother. • Written Python code to implement basic control of robot. • Have researched ways of communicating with the robot using the internet. Electronic Engineering Dept.

  4. Attention Areas • Broken Gumstix – Connex 400 • Irreparable – awaiting replacement. • Voltage Regulator blown. • Other Issues • Small delay with Wifistix due to the Mac address of wifistix not being registered with NUI Galway Network • Unable to use laptop for a while due to broken screen, which slowed progress. Electronic Engineering Dept.

  5. Schedule • Once new Gumstix received, code may be downloaded and field trials of robot can be done – Next Week. • Work on controlling via webpage, currently researching – Next Month. • Start work on add-ons, such as sensors for obstacle detection, and possibly a camera for live streaming of robot - Early March. Electronic Engineering Dept.

  6. Resources • Would like to thank, Technicians; Myles, Shaun and Martin and my project supervisor Fergal O’Malley for their help with technical issues. • Would also like to thank Frank Callaly for his Help with using Linux and the Gumstix. • Other useful resources have been the Gumstix online forum, Gumstix Support online and The O’Reilly Series of Python books. Electronic Engineering Dept.

  7. Personal Goals • To Work consistently and avail of the lab when I have any free time. • To cover all possible issues so as to avoid serious problems down the line. • To keep my supervisor updated, and to update my project webpage regularly. Electronic Engineering Dept.

  8. Thank You • Any Questions?? Electronic Engineering Dept.
