Re: Stereopi Robot Platform

Well, its been awhile since I posted here...I had completed the first Demo Stereopi Robot and have it posted on Hackster.IO with my other projects. It can be seen here: https://www.hackster.io/alien-energy-3/what-do-i-build-next-a-stereopi-based-tank-vehicle-e70d69 I still have to revisit again to m...

Re: OpenCV Image and My initial Robot tests

Well, its November. I've still not resolved the issue with my stereo pi's USB hub and a wifi dongle. I am trying to revisit my robot. Everything works with the robot tethered to the hub, during programming. When I try to power everything with only the wifi connected to the usb ports onboard, then is...

Re: OpenCV Image and My initial Robot tests

Thanks for reply. Just to clarify, i have the stereopi powered by a separate 5v 3A usb plug. I am using the 7 port usb hub, also 5v 3A, initially for keyboard and mouse and is connected to one of the stereopi's usb ports. All is well. When i plug any wifi dongle into the stereopi's usb port without ...

OpenCV Image and My initial Robot tests

So, after getting the SLP image setup and tested I had wanted to add the stereopi to a mobile platform. I was confused at the "locked image" conversion to "unlocked and writable" so I started with the OpenCV image to perform this task. I first got the OpenCV image to boot and I was able to get my lo...

Re: Stereopi Robot Platform

Thanks for the reply. Yes, the "locked down" image was what was indicated in the SLP info. Before doing any actions to the included 8gb SD card, I made a copy first and then I copied that image onto a 32gb SD card. I haven't gone further, I wanted to ensure GPIO pin configuration was clarified so I ...

Stereopi Robot Platform

Now that I have the stereopi video working on both cameras, I want to add software and hardware to create a Robot. I plan to add a L298N motor controller, an 16channel I2C PWM module, a Pan-n-Tilt servo assy for either the stereopi or an HC-SR04 Ultrasonic sensor. I believe the SD card images "inclu...
