Welcome to my lab journal for Cornell's ECE 4160 Fast Robots class where I will be designing and implementing a dynamic autonomous robot.

Fast.
Robots.

A journey of reconfiguring a toy RC car for autonomous driving

With Arduino IDE, Sparkfun Artemis, Python, C, and hobby electronics

Lab 1. Artemis.

I set up the prerequisite libraries and tested the Sparkfun Artemis Redboard sensor functionality in Arduino IDE.

Measuring
temperature,
LED blinking, and microphone input

Lab 2. Bluetooth.

In this lab, I learned to send data packets to and from the Artemis board over bluetooth in a Linux virtual environment.

Lab 3.

Real-time distance measurement with IR time-of-flight sensors.

Up to 4 meters range
