Internal Development
Not had much time a tall the last few weeks (sigh, sleep you little bastards!) ..
But a few small steps (and acquired lots of handy parts for Someday.. Beaglebone Black, a Teensy for emulating USB HIDs, FTDI chips, etc..)
- Added a raspberry-pi to my car/tank/thing; rpi has 2 USB slots.. one for wifi (EDIMAX teeny one) and another for webcam (the homemade electronics has the servo control, to move the webcam around.) rpi talks i2c/TWI to the avr side of things (which drives all the adc, motors, etc)
- Working on basic CGI/service, so a phone or browser can connect to the rpi on the car, and control the motors/cam that way; think -- full screen pics/video from the car webcam, with overlaid driving controls!
- Zikzak with some serial to a PC acting as wifi bridge; zikzak 8bit computer now controlling homemade RC car
