Weekly Report 3

During the week I’ve been trying to use my new LCD module with backlight. Another one I have been used has serial interface so that I don’t have to be bothered to make I/O interface but now I need to use I/O ports to control this LCD module.

PID controller needs more work. Only the software programming is needed. This can be done in a week.

Now the car has a steering wheel! I found the center position of the period of the PWM signal for the main servo. I attached Hitec HS-5925MG digital servo for doing it and it works pretty well.

For next week

Make the LCD useful for my project

Find good GPS module

PID gain tuning
