Updated: May 7, 2013 - Added 6 new chapters Author(s): Ken Hsu, Rochester Institute of Technology Dan Cheung, Rochester Institute of Technology Sam Skalicky, Rochester Institute of Technology Overview Written using the TWR-K40N512. Most of the knowledge is transferable to any of the Kinetis K family of devices. The Freescale Tower System is a modular development platform that allows rapid prototyping and re-use through interchangeable modules. A few of the modules are serial modules for Ethernet and other serial interfaces, wireless modules, audio modules, and blank proto-boards to build your own circuit. CodeWarrior 10.1 Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is a new version of CodeWarrior based on the Eclipse IDE. It provides features such as instruction level debugging, disassembly, access to device registers while debugging, processor expert, and more. It is designed to be used with Freescale’s latest microcontrollers.

El presente proyecto busca solucionar de una manera práctica y divertida actividades de terapia que pueden ser parte de la vida de cada persona con necesidades especiales, especialmente infantes. Por medio de este proyecto se pretende desarrollar la memoria y el orden lógico. Utilizando un sensor óptico para la lectura de pequeños Cubos de colores, el carro donde será transportado el sensor óptico emitirá una nota musical, misma que dependerá del color del cubo. El equipo de trabajo está conformado por cuatro estudiantes del Tecnologíco de Monterrey de primer semestre de la carrera de mecatronica.

Nosotros creemos que es más importante el “porque lo hacemos” a el “que hacemos” por eso nos enfocamos a un proyecto centrado a pacientes con parálisis cerebral. Tratamos de establecer un medio más cómodo y fácil de usar. Planeamos lograr nuestro objetivo con “Sen-Silla” una silla móvil manipulada por sensores y con esto lograr desplazarse de una manera más accesible a sus capacidades. Sensilla - YouTube

Pulse-width modulation (PWM), is a technique utilized in robotics for controlling motors and servos. Through the use of internal counters, the microcontroller modulates the duty cycle of a square wave to control the amount of power delivered to a device. The Duty Cycle referes to the porportion of time the square wave is 'on' as compared to the repeating signal period. The higher the duty cycle the higher the power carried in the signal. Duty cycle is expressed as a percentage of time the signal is 'on', with 100% being consistently on. overview-create-a-pwm-signal Once you feel comfortable that you understand the concepts behind a duty cycle signal, return to Reference Manual: Timer Information portion of the Drive A DC Motor Tutorial

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

Many companies run the risk of animals such as rats and variety of insects invading plants or warehouses, where the products are liable to be contaminated, mainly food industry companies. For the above, we come up with the development of the “pest control using Freescale” which consists of implementing an electronic device that emits ultrasonic frequencies ranging from 30KHz to 65KHz generated by the FRDM KL25Z board transmitted by a buzzer and through an interface may change the operation time of our prototype. Therefore purpose of this project is to solve the pest problem in a "green way" to avoid damaging the environment. Original Attachment has been moved to: Pest_control_using_Freescale.rar

The Embedded World trade show is a European reference for Embedded Technologies. The exhibition and conference continues to grow and attract exhibitors and attendees from all regions of EMEA. Freescale has a large demonstration booth in Hall 4A and, for the 2nd year in a row, we also have a Freescale University Programs presentation area in the entrance all, right outside Hall 4A. The 25m2 demo space for the University Programs this year include robotics and automotive demonstrations from the following Universities: Technical University of Munich: eCARus electric buggy featuring S12 and Qorivva CAN & FlexRay automotive networks and i.MX display University of Applied Sciences Munich with K60 Tower kits running Pong tennis game University of Applied Sciences Ingolstadt with a MPC5604B 3 dimensional camera stabilization system mounted on a 6-copter drone University of Applied Sciences Deggendorf with Kinetis Tower mini-robots University of Applied Sciences Landshut with ColdFire FSLBOT University of Applied Sciences Nuremberg with a ROS communication robotic arm demo ported on i.MX535 Technical University of Ostrava with a search/rescue robot featuring i.MX31 HMI interface on remote control and HCS12 radar control system In addition we have a video presentation of the Freescale Cup.
