The quadcopter drone is a very popular design for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). It consists of a flight controller and four electronic speed controllers (ESCs), one for each motor. The flight controller is equipped with a radio to receive flight commands provided by the pilot and the inertial measurement unit (IMU). The IMU provides information (such as velocity and orientation) that are necessary for autonomous stabilization of the vehicle, using the internal accelerometer, gyroscope, and sometimes the magnetometer and GPS receiver.   Resources Quadcopter Drone Reference Design   Drone Examples - powered by NXP 3DR Drone Spiri Programmable Flying Robot  DJI Phantom 3 Advanced

Demo Ricardo Anguiano describes a memory game demo built by Mentor Graphics for their Embedded Systems Division's 20th Anniversary. The game uses 36 FRDM-K64F boards with Adafruit 2.8" capacitive touchscreens in a 6 x 6 grid. The FRDM-K64F boards run the Nucleus RTOS from Mentor Graphics. The FRDM-K64F boards are connected over Ethernet to a touchscreen-driven Boundary Devices BD-SL-i.MX6 (formerly the SABRE Lite board) game controller which also runs the Nucleus RTOS. Players start the game by viewing and studying the position of all 36 digital cards, the cards are flipped and the player must touch matching pairs for points before time expires. The memory game generated lots of interest with players coming back multiple times. It was a great way to introduce the ARM TechCon crowd to the Nucleus RTOS, which enjoys wide success in a number of vertical markets and product categories like industrial, medical, IoT, wearables and automotive. The safety-certified version, Nucleus SafetyCert has been verified and documented to meet the certification requirements for device manufacturers developing safety related software for avionics requiring DO-178C Level A, industrial requiring IEC 61508 SIL 3, medical requiring IEC 62304 Class C, and automotive requiring ISO 26262 ASIL B. Features • A fun memory game built on Mentor Graphics' Nucleus RTOS, deployed on over 3 billion devices worldwide. • NXP FRDM-K64F and i.MX6 based hardware NXP products ARM Cortex-M4|Kinetis K64 120 MHz 32-bit MCUs i.MX6Q|i.MX 6Quad Processors|Quad Core Tools FRDM-K64F|Freedom Development Platform|Kinetis MCUs https://boundarydevices.com/product/sabre-lite-imx6-sbc/  Mentor Graphics Links https://www.mentor.com/embedded-software/nucleus/ https://www.mentor.com/embedded-software/nucleus/safety https://blogs.mentor.com/embedded/blog/2016/10/31/testing-your-memory-at-arm-techcon/

Description In this demo we show how to create a zumo robot basic controller. For this we will use the FRDM-KW41 card, an H bridge, and a cell phone with the NXP IoT toolbox application. From the application we will send the characters F forward, S to stop, B to back, L to left, R to right. The FRDM-KW41Z highly-sensitive, optimized 2.4 GHz radio features a PCB F-antenna which can be bypassed to test via SMA connection, multiple power supply options, push/capacitive touch buttons, switches, LEDs and integrated sensors. Video Diagram and Schematic Step by Step guide First, we need to have MCUXpresso installed and open. Download and load the Zumo Robot project in MCUXpresso. Install NXP IoT Toolbox app. Compile the project, connect the board and load it. Connect the card as indicated in the schematic Connect the power supply. Press switch 4 on the board. Open NXP IoT Toolbox, select Wireles UART and connect with the board. Now you can send the characters mentioned in the description.
