simple-raspi-car's Introduction

Simple Raspberry Pi Car

A smart car project based on Raspberry PI.

What's up

v0.2: Add camera yaw/pitch servo.
v0.1: Establish the project.

Hardware

Power flow

Battery -> ESC(Electronic Speed Controller) -(BEC: 5V)-> Arduino -> Raspberry PI
                                            -(BEC: 5V)-> Steering Servo
                                            -(BEC: 5V)-> Camera Yaw/Pitch Servo
                                            -(Battery)-> Motor

Control flow

Raspberry PI <-Serial-> Arduino -PWM-> ESC
                                -PWM-> Steering Servo
                                -PWM-> Camera Yaw/Pitch Servo
