About the programming of ODYSSEUS rover, we used specific programs as indicated below. These are:
The main program for developing the code of microcontroller Arduino UNO. ---> Arduino IDE (ver. 1.0.1): http://arduino.googlecode.com/files/arduino-1.0.1-windows.zip
The graphics development environment for the control of the Robotic arm. ---> Processing (ver. 1.5.1): http://processing.googlecode.com/files/processing-1.5.1-windows.zip
The terminal program for the configuaration of the Xbee's and the real time communication with ODYSSEUS. ---> X-CTU (ver. 5.2.7.5): http://ftp1.digi.com/support/utilities/40003002_B.exe
Also, the operation of the wireless transceivers Xbee PRO 900 needs the installation of the following drivers:
|
FTDI USB Drivers.rar Size : 970.817 Kb Type : rar |
OPEN SOURCE CODE
Running the code of Processing and controlling the robotic arm requires downloading the "buttons.rar" file. The default installation path is: C:\Users\yournname\Documents\processing-1.5.1 |
Necessary additional libraries for Arduino Code:
|
|
Note: These libraries DO NOT replace any. They are additional files that should be installed together with the default libraries of the Arduino IDE program. The installation path is: C:\Users\yourname\Documents\arduino-1.0.1\libraries
