Harvard Extension School CSCI E-251, Fall 2012: Principles of Operating Systems Final Project Presentations Presentation by Ethan Tavan

Depending on which MCU Devlopment board you have chosen, you will need to figure out a way to mount this to the chassis. I have seen everything from cardboard, to aluminum, to wood. Below is a template complete with CAD drawings to mount the Qorivva TRK-MPC5604B board and the Motor Board onto the chassis. We use plexiglass for ours, but any other millable material is appropriate. The large hole in the middle is for cables from the servo. We attach the board to the car using the plastic standoffs (you will need them 55 mm long, so in our case, we used the combination of 40 + 15 mm) - see an example (SOS code 10260). To attach both the processor and interface boards the simillar 5mm plastic standoffs were used. Preview (.pdf) CAD file (.dxf)

Video on YouTube done by the University of Applied Sciences of Munich about the Freescale Cup event held on March 18th Freescale Cup 2014 an der Hochschule München - YouTube

Students from the University Applied Sciences TDU Deggendorf gave yesterday a demonstration of their Freescale Cup cars. 10 teams had worked during the semester in getting their cars running on their homemade Freescale Cup track based on Tower K60 kits. They ran them with lights on, lights off, in both directions on the track. Solid performance overall. HDU Deggendorf's teams are led by Prof. Gerald Kupris and have enrolled for the 3rd consecutive season into the Freescale Cup EMEA Challenge 2014. They are preparing another set of cars to compete in the upcoming racing season.

The TWR-K40X256 Kit is a Freescale evaluation board powered by the Kinetis K40 microcontroller. The Kinetis microcontroller family is a set of 32 bit ARM Cortex M4 chips which feature flexible storage, lower power usage, high performance and optional Floating Point Unit with many useful peripherals. For more information on the Kinetis family see Freescale's Kinetis website. The Tower System is a prototyping platform with interchangeable and reusable modules along with open source design files. TWR K40X256 Hardware Setup 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. TWR K40X246 Hardware Setup Instructions Board Specific Tutorials K40 Blink LED K40 Drive DC Motor K40 Drive Servo Motor K40 Line Scan Camera Board Tips The TWR-K40X256 features a socket that can accept a variety of different Tower Plug-in modules featuring sensors, RF transceivers, and more. The General Purpose TWRPI socket provides access to I2C, SPI, IRQs, GPIOs, timers, analog conversion signals, TWRPI ID signals, reset, and voltage supplies. The pinout for the TWRPI Socket is defined in Table 3 of the TWR-K40X256 User's Manual, but the user manual does not describe how to order a connector A Samtec connector, part number: SFC-110-T2-L-D-A is the proper female mating connector for the TWR-K40X256 TWRPI socket.

Este es un teclado que tiene como propósito ayudar a las personas con problemas motrices, específicamente en las manos. Existen programas de diseño como photoshop o autocad en los cuales se puede ahorrar tiempo usando los macros con el teclado en lugar de usar el mouse para todo. KES tiene el propósito de ayudar a hacer más rápido el uso de estos programas y también ayudar a las personas con problemas motrices ya que con solo pulsar un botón será lo mismo que utilizar una combinación de los mismos. KES tiene la misión de agilizar el uso de macros en programas que conviene, aparte de el apoyo ofrecido a las personas con dificultades motrices. Enlace al video KES - YouTube

Highlights for Freescale Cup Malaysia 2011. Enjoy it 🙂

The Team from the University of Padova in Vicenza are working in getting their race car ready for the upcoming EMEA Finals that will be held in Paris on 26-27 March. They filed this short video on a make up track. Conditions were not the best so they had to scale down the speed.

Interactive alarm Clock La descripción de este proyecto consta principalmente de tres elementos que destacan el primero y el cual es tomado como planta principal es un reloj despertador el cual esta conformado por un freedom, un LCD de 16x2 caract. y por una pequeña bocina, este será controlado para su funcionamiento con el módulo touch del micro-controlador; como segundo apartado se tiene una tira de LEDS que se empotra a la cabecera de la cama la cual contendrá un dimmer para controlar la cantidad de luz, teniendo como máxima intensidad la hora fijada en la alarma (como apoyo además de la bocina para lograr despertar) y por último un interruptor de apagado que se pretende colocar al otro lado de la habitación donde se desee incorporar el despertador, el cual tendrá forma de canasta de baloncesto, para que solamente al anotar una canasta sea la única forma de apagar la alarma y este proceso sea interactivo.
