Hello World

Assignment

Get the development environment from sourceforge.

SourceForge SJSU Development Package

Compile a sample FreeRTOS sample project

Load it onto the processor

Add a terminal command to your project, have it do something creative (Like print temperature on the screen)

Reference this article on how to add a terminal command:

http://www.socialledge.com/sjsu/index.php?title=SJ_One_Board

SUBMIT YOUR CODE online (copy/paste to Text Entry box). Or simply provide me a link if you use Gitlab or other online repository for your code submission.

Only submit the relevant code, or just the code you added.

Project Setup

Final Wiki Schedule

CAN Communication Demo

Assignment

Demonstrate that each ECU is able to communicate over the CAN Bus

Code should utilize the auto-generated artifacts from the DBC file
MIA handling should occur on the messages that are expected to be received
Upon MIA, an LED indicator should indicate that there is 1 or more message in the MIA state

In person demonstration should be given for this assignment and there is nothing to turn in otherwise.

Producer / Consumer Tasks

Assignment

Create a task that polls the acceleration sensor, and determines the orientation of the board, such as "up, down, left, right". Create an enumeration such as "typdef enum { invalid, up, down, left, right, }orientation_t;
Create a queue, and have the first task send orientation values every second to the queue.
Print something BEFORE and AFTER sending the enumeration value to the queue.
Create a task that is waiting on the orientation enumeration to be sent by the previous task.
Print something immediately after the second task receives the data from the queue.
Use same priority for both tasks and note down the print-outs.
Alter the priority of second task to use higher priority, and note down the print-outs
Note down your results, and submit it at the top of your code submission.

Project Prototypes

Assignment

Project prototypes are expected to demonstrate the following:

Reliable CAN communication between different ECUs
Basic obstacle avoidance (free-run mode)
Reliable sensor inputs (PCAN will be used by class mentors to assess)
Reasonable motor commands (PCAN will be used by class mentors to assess)
Extra credit if you go above and beyond and show even more progress such as a working Android app

Individual Contribution

You will be grading your group members based on how much or how little they contributed to the project. You must be ethical, and honest, and not go based on your "emotions".

Example:

Name Letter Grade Notes Last1, First1 A This student was involved in all aspects of the project design and was present at all group meetings. Last2, First2 C- This student contributed to writing the report but was absent for many group meetings.

-= LED Switch =
-=== Due ===
-Sep 13 at 6pm
-=== Assignment ===
-Work in groups of 2:
-*Interface an LED (such as P2.1) to "Board A", which we will refer to as "LED Board"
-*Interface a switch (such as P2.2) to "Board B", which we will refer to as "SW Board" (switch board)
-*Connect the LED Board and SW Board together using "Port 2"
-*Example: P2.0 of LED board connects to P2.0 on the SW Board
-*LED board Software is simple, whenever its P2.0 (which is interfaced to the SW Board) is detected HIGH, light up its LED (on P2.1), else turn it off
-*On the SW Board, use "External Interrupt" API (eint.h) to detect when the switch gets pressed
-*The callback should simply turn a flag (global variable) to true
-*The callback MUST NOT POLL, and MUST NOT DELAY, and EXIT IMMEDIATELY since it is an interrupt function
-*On the SW Board, launch a separate task, and when the flag is true, toggle the P2.0 for at least 500ms
-*Bonus points: Use a binary semaphore in the interrupt, and have the task wait on the semaphore instead of polling.  See the FreeRTOS video about the binary semaphore
-For the demo:
-The SW Board should detect its switch press by an external interrupt and toggle its P2.0
-The LED Board should detect its own P2.0 and light up the LED
-This assignment demonstrates the use of external interrupts, and how to interface different boards together.  Furthermore, you should have learned the concepts of different tasks that you can run in FreeRTOS.  In general, you should never have to poll for events, and you should use interrupt functionality as much as possible.  Turn in ONE SUBMISSION per group with the following:
-Only turn in the relevant source code, such as main.cpp
-Indicate at the top of the file who you worked with.  (Do not have the other person turn in anything)

-Communicate with one of the class ISA to setup your groups @ Canvas.  Be sure to have your group name ready and use an appropriate group name.
-Failure to do so by the deadline will result in zero points for the assignment.  Be sure to do this before leaving the class.
-Also, order CAN transceiver hardware for your entire team (1 per person)
-= Serial Communication =
-=== Due ===
-Sep 20 at 6pm
-=== Assignment ===
-Use either UART2 or UART3 to communication between two boards.  You can work in groups of 2.
-*Locate the UART pins on your board.
-*Use the schematic or Wikipedia board article.
-*Interface to another UART on someone else's board.
-*If you use UART2, you cannot use the same UART2 on the 2nd board (use UART1 instead).
-*Prove that both of your boards and communicate with each other.  Bonus points for doing something creative, such as one board acting like a random sensor, and the second board outputting the sensor reading on the LED display.
-*This assignment demonstrate how to communicate to another device using UART.  The UART driver is based on queues, and there is no need to poll for data to arrive, or for data to be sent.  Size your queues appropriately and they shouldn't be too large or too small.  For example, if you service the received data every 100ms, then your queues should only  need to be as big as the number of characters you expect to receive within 100ms (38400bps can provide 400 chars in 100ms).

-Only turn in the relevant source code, such as main.cpp for both boards

-= CAN Communication =
-=== Due ===
-Oct 4 at 6pm
-=== Assignment ===
-You can work in groups of 2:
-*Build and interface the CAN transceiver with another person's CAN transceiver.
-*Initialize the CAN Bus (read can.h at the drivers directory).
-*Use a simple periodic message (every 100ms) that is sent from BoardA to BoardB.
-*For example, if BoardA senses a switch pressed, send a 1-byte message with 0xAA, otherwise send 0x00 if button is not pressed
-*For robustness, if the CAN Bus turns off, simply turn it back on at 1Hz (every 1000ms)
-*On BoardB, simply light up an LED  (or otherwise turn it off) based on the CAN message data
-*This assignment gives you an overview of practical use of the CAN Bus, and later, by utilizing the DBC file and auto-generation of code, sending and receiving data becomes very easy.  *While this provides the bare bone knowledge of how communication works, the future lectures will focus on the application layer while abstracting away the details of CAN messages's data encoding and decoding.
-Although the real-time periodic scheduler was not discussed, it might be worth your time to simply turn it on (using #define) since it can help you send periodic messages fairly easily.  This will also help you prepare in advance for the future lectures.
-= Wiki Schedule =
-=== Due ===
-Oct 11 at 6pm
-=== Assignment ===
-Write a schedule that is a list of your team's milestones.  This is a tool for you to assign responsibilities and deadlines for your project's milestones.  In general, this should list out when the team as a whole expects a certain functionality to be delivered.
-The grading will depend on how well you have assigned your milestones and if the goals are measurable.  For example, milestones such as "interface sensor and send sensor data over CAN messages" and "add a filter for the sensor data" are measurable goals, whereas, "interface sensor", and "send data" are too generic and un-measurable goals.
-= Periodic Scheduler =
-=== Due ===
-Oct 11 at 6pm
-=== Assignment ===
-INDIVIDUAL HOMEWORK:
-Easy homework, use the periodic tasks to add two functions that they call, run your program, and then do the following:
-*Modify main.cpp to configure the periodic scheduler, and leave the terminal task present that you will use later in the assignment
-*Design a Software based "filter".  The simplest one could be to average a few readings but read and research more on Wikipedia (they even have Psuedocode)
-*Add the two new "Sensor" periodic callbacks, one at 1Hz, the other at 10Hz
-*In the 10Hz callback, design a Software filter to filter the Light sensor readings
-*In the 1Hz callback, print out the filtered sensor reading.
-*Do more experiments with the "Logging" capability
-*Log some data using LOG_INFO() or similar message from file_logger.h
-*Use "info 5000" command to see CPU utilization for 5 seconds.
-*Use "cat log.csv" to view the log file data.
-Attach your output to Canvas along with your code.
-= CAN TX / RX using Auto-gen code =
-=== Due ===
-Oct 18 at 6:30pm
-=== Assignment ===
-Work in groups of 2 by assuming one board is the DRIVER while the other board is the MOTOR or SENSOR.
-The objective of the assignment is to demonstrate CAN data handling using the auto-generated code.  Follow these steps:
-*Define a DBC message that your controller sends (TX)
-*Define a DBC message that your controller receives (RX)
-*Attempt to recover the CAN Bus (from Bus OFF) at 1Hz (both Boards)
-*Send the TX message from BoardA at a fixed frequency, such as 10Hz
-*Attempt to receive the RX message (on BoardB) at the designated frequency, and light up an LED when the message enters the MIA state
-*Prove that the MIA handling is occurring as intended (simple LED test by disconnecting the board that sends you a periodic message).
-*Prove that valid data is being received and reacted upon (such as displaying received sensor reading on the LED display)
-*This is a powerful assignment that demonstrates how to send and receive data using the auto-generated code that is derived from your DBC file.  This will be the stepping stone of the overall CAN communication that will occur in your project.
