Personal projects

In order to prepare future projects, model making at the time, and to refresh my knowledge of microncontroller programming, I made prototyping electronic board with a programming circuit derived from the programmer UsbPicProg, and some components allowing to create a program (serial link, stepper motor, DC motor, LCD display, buzzer, buttons, potentiometers, LEDs).

In order to simplify the change of microcontroller, to managethe 12V power supply and to integrate the serial / USB converter, I made a second improved version.

  • Microchip PIC16F, PIC18F

Training and preparing for future projects

In order to improve an analog remote-controlled vehicle and then make it self-guided, I made the electronic cards for the vehicle and the remote control, as well as the program for their respective microcontrollers.

The vehicle incorporates batttery management, steering and propulsion motor regulation, a buzzer, LEDs, a radio receiver,and an I2C link to Raspberry or ESP32.

In order to correct some design errors, I made a second board for the vehicle. This makes it possible to significantly increase current delivered by the choppers to the motors (x 2,5), as well as to improve the management of its power supply, that of the Raspberry, and to separate the lighting of the lights (LEDs).

In order to make this vehicle self-guided, using a camera, I made a computer program, initially for a Raspberry, using the OpenCV library, then an ESP32 microcontroller with camera. This communicates with the vehicle using the I2C link.

In order to be able to control this vehicle remotely, using the imagesfrom the camera, I made a third computer program, which communicates with the Raspberry or the ESP32 microcontroller using Wifi. Following the use of ESP32, it has evolved to integrate the OpenCV library.

Software development in C

  • Microcontroller (PIC16F) with communication (radio and I2C)
  • Raspberry Pi 3 / ESP32 : I2C communication (to the vehicle) and Ethernet (Wifi), computer vision with OpenCV

Software development in C++ / Qt

  • Remote control application, via the Raspberry / ESP32 and computer vision

Improved an analog RC vehicle to make it self-guided

Due to the obsolescence of an electric storage heater (with bricks) and in order to remedy the obsolescence of the spare parst, including the load regulation card, I made a new electronic card which will also allow upgrade the device (as with current thermostats): fault management, room temperature regulation, time planning, configuration and trend display via web interface.
