Advanced Interface for Robotic Control System

Translate user actions into control signals to autonomously displace the robot. Consider size, weight, features, signal range, adaptability, and cost. Two concepts explored: Tethered Laptop and Wireless Remote. Decision based on software testing for optimal solution. Consider using wireless keyboard for communication interface.

Presentation Transcript

  1. User Interface (hardware)

  2. Overview • Translate user actions into electrical control signal which controls the robot movement • Be able to input and store coordinates and translate that into control signals that can autonomously displace the robot to the desire coordinates

  3. Concerns(selection criteria) • Size and weight of user interface • User friendly • Number of features it can have • Maximum signal range • Adaptability to add-ons and features • Programming language with PC104

  4. Concept #1 • Tethered Laptop • Pros • Adaptable to future programs and control modules • Full featured • Complex functionality • inexpensive • Cons • Limited distance • Not ergonomic

  5. Concept #2 • Wireless Remote • Pros • Light weight • User friendly • Long operating range • Cons • Expensive transceiver modules • Limited functionality

  6. Preliminary Analysis

  7. Conclusion • Software concepts decision will be determined after an optimal solution for the user interface unit is tested and determined • Using a wireless keyboard as the communication interface could also be feasible. • Cost less and more feature than remote • Wireless capability • Lighter weight than a laptop
