Project RAED update #2

Hello all! Been busy getting everything connected and initialized for the build. Successfully connected Gertbot, MEMS board, and Pi Camera. I've got them successfully communicating through a Pi Rack onto the B+ (as the MEMS refuses to work with the Pi 2). I have noticed that whenever the Gertbot is driving my test motor that the MEMS readings really wig out. Ultimately I think I will have both Pis running in the project - a navigator and a driver. I'll have the B+ connected to the MEMS board, Pi Camera and GPS modules (the latter of which is still set to arrive) to work on navigation, while the 2 will be running the motors and mechanicals. I haven't figured out how I want to approach servo control yet - maybe the chipkit? Anyway, here's a picture of my little leaning tower of testing.  ultimately I'll mount everything securely and use ribbon cables to connect.

    Yeah, MEMS board does not work with Pi2, the sensor drive that is currently available does not with with the broadcom chip on RPi2. Bummer, really.

    It is always good to think about how you are going to test your creation before you get overwhelmed with all of the integration.

     

    I have found test planning in general to be under-assessed in most of the projects I worked on over the years.

     

    At times, the testing issues were more complex than the solutions were.
