Program structure

The scheme above shows the first proposal of the components of which the final program will consist. A more detailed overview will be published in the coming days or week(s). The components in grey are considered to be not very important in order to succesfully complete the corridor competition. However, these components are necessary for a succesful completion of the final competition.

In this section I will publish all kinds of information on the things I am currently learning, I have learned so far and my further ambitions.

8th of May 2012 - Learning how to make a map

Today, I have been busy with learning how I can produce a 2D map of the data I receive from all my sensors. I hope to succeed in making a map before the end of this week. Besides, I will try to succeed in driving a predefined distance or angle. This should eventually help me following the instructions of my navigation program. I hope to have more exciting news soon...
