In Action: LISA Starter Kits

LISA Starter Kits - Connecting off-the shelf directional sensors on demonstration robots.


LISA Starter Kits are readily adaptable to a wide range of peripherals, including: ultrasonic ranger, gyroscope, accelerometer, speech synthesizer, CMU2 camera, compass and others.

Peripheral interface modules can be custom developed for other sensors, actuators and transceivers.

 

This video provides an example of LISA Starter Kits’ ‘plug and play’ sensor functionality.

LISA’s unique plug-and-play feature allows new peripherals to be plugged in at anytime; providing immediate access to controller. No custom interfaces are required

 

LISA Starter Kits are an affordable and easily configurable solution for robotic controllers.

In Action: LISA Starter Kits at University of Ottawa

 

 

The University of Ottawa's Real-Time and Embedded Software Design course within the Software Engineering department (SEG 4140) recently ordered custom configurations of the LISA Networking product.

 

The SEG Starter Interface Kits (SIKs) included:

 

  • 1 Interface Gateway plus 6 peripheral interface modules, including:
  • 1 Power module (supporting voltage/current monitoring)

  • 1 LED module (supporting 8 LEDs)

  • 1 Wheel Encoder module (supporting 8 wheel encoders

  • 1 Sharp DP2D02 IR Ranger module (supporting 3 IR sensors)

  • 1 Servo module (supporting 4 servo motors)

  • 1 UART module (supporting Bluetooth communications)

 

 

Each SEG Starter Interface Kit provides the following unique features:


  • Hot plug and play peripheral interface modules

  • Expandable to connect up to 112 peripheral interface modules

  • Data processing capabilities on the interface modules

  • Gateway serial interface via RS232 or 3.3V UART

  • Auto baud rate detect hardware, tested between 0.3 k to 2,000 k Baud

  • GUI validation software, for fast product familiarization

  • On the fly firmware upgradeable - future proof

  • Student proof design with a resettable fuse, and key shape connectors

  • Low power design, for battery powered applications

 

The addition of the LISA SIKs to the Univeristy of Ottawa robotic platforms benefit the students by improving their learning outcomes and reducing their laboratory start up times.
