Este proyecto fue realizado por estudiantes de Mecatrónica del Tecnológico de Monterrey Campus Guadalajara y está diseñado para pacientes con problemas motrices, principalmente en brazos y piernas. La intención de nuestro prototipo es que el paciente pueda transportarse autónomamente en su silla de ruedas mediante una especie de casco que detecte la dirección deseada, además de que sea una manera recreativa de trasladarse. Este casco usa acelerómetros y se mueve detectando los ejes X y Y, este último es para trasladarse hacia adelante y en reversa. Nuestra intención es demostrar nuestro punto usando un carrito constituido por una ProtoBoard, dos servomotores y una tarjeta Freedom® KL25Z de Freescale® y controlarlo por medio de dicho casco

Instructions There are several main hardware configuration steps. After installing the battery, once the USB cable has been connected between the evaluation board and PC, it may be necessary to update the chip firmware which requires moving a jumper pin on the evaluation board. Install the included battery into the VBAT (RTC) battery holder. Then, connect one end of the USB cable to the PC and the other end to the Power/OSJTAG mini-B connector on the TWRK40x256 module. Allow the PC to automatically configure the USB drivers if needed. Before updating the firmware, it is necessary to start a CodeWarrior Project. Open Codewarrior Navigate to File-> New ->Bareboard Project Select Kinetis K40->MK40X256VMD100 , P&E Open Source Jtag, C Language, No Rapid Application Development ,Finish Click on the main.c To get project focus Selection Project->Build Configurations->MK40X256VMD100_INTERNAL_FLASH Project-»Build All Run->Debug Configurations—> Use the Codewarrior download Filter and Select "PROJECTNAME_MK40XD256VMD100_INTERNAL_FLASH_PnE_OSJTAG" Additional step is required if the firmware is out of date: Firmware Upgrade Instructions (if needed) Firmware may change after an evaluation board has been manufactured and shipped. As a result, an alert will be displayed during the first attempt to download software to the board. Follow the instructions carefully. Unplug the USB cable. Look for the two pins labeled JM60 Boot and put a jumper on those pins Note: As it comes from the factory, the K40 board has a free jumper on the board. . Jumper J13 is labeled "JM60 BOOT." It connects two header pins which set the evaluation board in the firmware programming mode. This jumper is behind the LCD screen, and right next to LED/Touch Sensor "E3". Remove the LCD creen to gain access to the jumper. Reconnect the USB cable and click OK. Wait for the new firmware to download. A new dialog will appear when the process is complete. Unplug the cable, remove the jumper, and reconnect the cable. Then click OK. (You can store the jumper on the board, just set it so that it does not connect pins.) You may or may not encounter the firmware issue, or the multiple configurations issue. Once resolved, you should not see them again. With propertly set up hardware, users can return to Step 3: Import the LED Project of the Blink a LED on Kinetis Tutorial

El proyecto se trata de un tiro al blanco que funciona con una pistola que emite luz infrarroja, la cual es captada por los sensores infrarrojos localizados en el centro de los blancos. De atinarle al blanco, este se esconderá y aparecerá uno nuevo.

The Worldwide Rules are to be used for all challenges unless the University Programs Coordinator modifies the rules for your specific region. Update on Rules V6: highlighted the fact that no wireless connectivity is allowed during the race. Any wireless connectivity module must be removed before the technical inspection

Discussion of how to setup interrupts on the NVIC. The Flex timer is used as an example

Note:    We are currently a 3 completed projects.   At this point we are going to stop and rethink the ideas for future projects.   Feel free to add comments below for project suggestions!   Any ideas for new stuff that currently aren't out in the wild with other platforms would be very helpful! Introduction HIT projects are a new initiative to help improve your embedded systems chops.  The target audience spans STEM student in high school,  DIY enthusiasts, hackers, Makers,  universities and seasoned embedded developers.    Each project makes use open hardware, software and instructional videos to supply the audience all they need to put together a cool project and expose them to a new topic space. Each HIT project will be comprised of the following A low cost Freescale Development Board (such as the FRDM series) A FRDM Shield.  Many cases,  there will be a shield that the participant can assemble themselves with parts procured from common distributors.  Raw PCBs will be available at low cost All Hardware will open.  Raw design files (Schematics, BOM. Gerbers, notes) will be supplied so the participant can fabricate PCBs themselves. All software will be opensource and available on the project packages and/or Google Code or GitHub The projects will try to simulate the participant by mapping code to the senses..... Play sounds,  blinking LEDs, starting warp drives.  After all it is nice to see a microcontroller do something.  A DMA unit  may be a really cool piece of hardware but it would be quite boring if we never used it to do something cool ! The goal is to have cool projects that will capture your interest,  develop new skills while not breaking the bank.    While efforts will be made to keeps costs minimum,  other factors such as part availability, ease of use, cool factor also come into play! Each project will list a set of skills that you will develop.  This will included both microcontroller hardware  and high level concepts (I2S modules, Digital Signal Processing, etc.).    When you complete a project,  you will have some good experience with something new.  Efforts will be made to have the project span a variety of hardware interfaces, design patterns and embedded systems topics.  Most importantly, each project will be cool in its own way! Project Listing and Roadmap Here you will find the current project list , status and roadmap.  Note that items on the roadmap are subject to change Project #1: Monkey Jam! A DIY Guitar / Bass Stomp Box Summary: Project #1 will use the FRDM-K20D50 board (which has a Cortex M4 core with DSP instruction) with the FRDM-JAM shield so you can  make your very own guitar  bass  stomp box.  The end result will be a functional DSP system that will allow you to do high quality amplifier simulation and effects. The FRDM-JAM does not limit you to DSP on musical instruments!  There are 3.5MM stereo jacks to DSP filtering any type of audio signal.    You could even use the USB interface to create a USB-MIDI Synthesizer!  Lastly,  no need to bring the house down.....  a headphone amplifier circuit is provided so you can jam out without bothering the neighbors Skills Developed: Real Time DSP Algorithms Fixed Point Mathematics 24-bit I2S Data Converter Interfacing Soldering SOIC8 and 1206 Surface mount devices Cortex CMSIS DSP Library Audio filtering techniques Tube Amplifier modeling Status:    Released! Project Page: Freescale H.I.T. Project #1:  MonkeyJam - A DIY Guitar Stomp Box Project #2: Monkey Listen! Audio Spectrum Analyzer Display Summary: MonkeyListen uses the FRDM-K20D50 board (which has a Cortex M4 core with DSP instructions) with the FRDM-OLED shield so you can make your very own spectrum analyzer display.  The end result will be a functional DSP system that will analyze incoming audio content via an electret microphone on FRDM-OLED board and display the spectral content.   The example code will also show you how to plot time domain data (a simple audio scope!),  Frequency domain data (via an FFT) and a time-frequency plot (spectrogram).  Extra I/O are provided to hack the code and create your own DMM or oscilloscope. The FRDM-OLED shield also has an optional RS-485 interface for doing cool things like driving a DMX lighting system!
