DBC File

In our DBC file, we have 6 nodes, DRIVER, SENSOR, BRIDGE, GEO CONTROLLER, COMPASS, and MOTOR. Each of them represents a message sends from one node to another via the CAN bus.


1. The DRIVER sends the throttle and wheel angle command to the MOTOR so it knows when to speed up, speed down and turn.
2. The SENSOR sends the information about how far away is each of the Ultrasonic sensors away from the obstacles
3. The BRIDGE sends the GPS destination to the GEO Controller
4. The GEO CONTROLLER sends the current location of the car back to the BRIDGE
5. The GEO CONTROLLER sends the heading, bearing, and the distance from the destination to the DRIVER
6. The MOTOR sends the PWM and current speed information to the DEBUG node.

Geographical Controller

Link To Gitlab

Hardware Design

We used the Ultimate GPS Breakout v3 and an antenna to better receive the GPS signal.

For the GPS module, it sends several NMEA sentences but we only look for the $GPGGA ones. Therefore, we had to change the settings of the modules using a USB to UART bridge to send the command to the GPS module.

<List the code modules that are being called periodically.>




void periodic_callbacks__10Hz(uint32_t callback_count) {

  // receive desintation coordinates from the web app (sensor/bridge controller)
  gps__receive_message(can1); 

  gps__run_once();

  // transmit current gps coordinates to the web app (sensor/bridge controller)
  gps__transmit_msg_to_bridge(can1); 

  // transmit compass heading, bearing, distance to the driver (driver controller)
  cmps14__transmit_message(can1);  

  led_ring_turn_on_led_north();

  count = gps_fix_led_logic(gpio_input_p2_0, gpio_output_p1_18, count);
}


Technical Challenges

< List of problems and their detailed resolutions>

/*** TEMPORARY NOTES ***/

1. Encountered issues with getting fixed coordinates. Fixed it by obtaining external antenna and plugging in CR1220 as a backup battery.



2. The dbc format can support up to only 6 decimal point, which is not accurate when it is being used to store the GPS coordinates. Fix by using the Degrees Minutes Seconds format.
