CAN-STER TRUCK

Abstract

The CAN-STER Truck Project is an autonomous RC car with CAN Bus interfaced controllers. The development of the RC car's subsystem modules (Interfacing of Ultrasonic Sensor, LIDAR, Bluetooth, GPS and CAN modules) was divided among by six team members. The aim of the project is to develop an autonomous RC Car which can navigate from the source location to a selected destination by avoiding obstacles in its path using sensors and motors.

Introduction

The project was divided into N modules:

• Sensor Controller
• Motor Controller
• Geographical
• Communication Bridge Controller & LCD
• Android Application and Bluetooth
• PCB Hardware Integration
• Testing and Code Review
