Project Title

LightFury

Abstract

LightFury is an autonomous electric car that takes GPS location as a destination from an Android smartphone application and self-navigates to the provided coordinates. The car uses SJOne boards based on LPC 1758 Microcontrollers. This page is a detailed report of the whole project.

Introduction

The project was divided into 7 modules:

  • Master Controller
  • Motor Controller
  • Sensor Controller
  • GPS Controller
  • Android application and Bluetooth Connectivity
  • Hardware (PCB designing)
  • Testing
