Computer-on-modules chosen to provide the brains for the compute-intensive tasks of the robot.
Advancements in computer-based intelligence and sensor technology, means previously stationary robots unaware of their environment are now evolving into smart autonomous mobile robots. These highly autonomous and mobile robots that can navigate effortlessly through even the most difficult environments. The compute-intensive tasks these robots can tackle include situational awareness, motion control, and mission fulfillment. Such advancements will help to relieve humans of potentially dangerous tasks and also to optimize repetitive tasks in real life environments from an economic point of view. These robots can autonomously fulfill many jobs that previously required human labor and significantly extend the list of feasible tasks.
In-vehicle networks (IVNs) allow microcontrollers and engine control units (ECUs) to communicate with sensors, actuators, indicators, displays, and each other. One of the classic...
