EmbExp-BalRob - embedded experiment balancing robot

This an embedded experiment that is meant to be a physical demonstrator for execution time analysis.

The build infrastructure is shared with EmbExp-ProgPlatform in order to integrate with analysis in HolBA.

This repository contains the source code for a simple LPC11C24 based balancing robot as well as a companion tool RemoteControl. The mechanical setup is inspired by the following instructions: Arduino Self-Balancing Robot.

Balancing Robot

Getting started

Setup a HolBA environment with the appropriate gcc. Install the tool egypt by running make callgraph-install. Install the package graphviz with apt for example.

Compile by running make. View the dependency graph by running make callgraph-full.

Write flash memory in the robot

  • One shell with make connect
  • Another one with make clean run

Connect to the robot

  • Configure HC05 module with sudo picocom --omap crcrlf -c -b 38400 /dev/serial/by-id/...

  • Slave addresses:
    • 98D3:32:310BA7
    • 21:13:4F0D
  • Some commands:
    • AT+RNAME?21,13,4F0D
    • AT+PAIR=21,13,4F0D,5
    • AT+BIND=21,13,4F0D
    • AT+LINK=21,13,4F0D
    • AT+PSWD="1234"
  • Configure serial port path in library file pyRC/lib/balrob.py
  • Run monitor ./pyRC/info.py
  • Run remote commander ./pyRC/remotecontrol.py

Most annoying things that should be fixed

  • Remote loading of optimized and unoptimized code is not compatible for some reason (for example mixing optimized code in flash with remote loaded unoptimized code)
