POV Plans

After quickly coding up some C code to drive LEDs I was quickly able to write some POV based messages when the LED line was waved through the air. Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to take any photos of the writing that was being flashed through the air. The grand plan for open day is to use a wireless MSP430 module to allow us to wirelessly program whatever message we would like.


Below I have included a couple of photos that were taken from the version 1 line tracking robot. For interests sake the CD that I used for the baseplate was from the TI microprocessors that didn't quite work - the device ID for the USB driver was wrong (and the version of IAR studio was 2 versions old).
