A demonstration of the telemetry library (https://github.com/Overdrivr/Telemetry) to transfert to the desktop various data from the FRDM-TFC shield
Dependencies: BufferedSerial FRDM-TFC-HBRIDGE mbed telemetry
Example of the 'Telemetry' library, a portable communication library for embedded devices.
This code fetches all the data from the Freescale Cup RC-car. It relies on a more advanced shield library that is able to read current feedback from HBridges.
The available data is the following :
- Potentiometer 0
- Potentiometer 1
- 4-bit DIP switch
- Battery level
- current inside HBridge A
- current inside HBridge B
You can use the Pytelemetry Command Line Interface to open plots, visualize the received data, and communicate with the car.
