Transmission within the car - HC-05 & HC-06 FC114 (Bluetooth module)

Week 3 & Week 4 We were tasked to work on the transmission of sensor data within the car with the Bluetooth module, HC-06 FC114, hence eliminating the need of using wiring. We are tasked to use the HC-05 FC-114 (master), and HC-06 FC-114(slave) Bluetooth module and pair them up to allow the communication of Arduino through Bluetooth transmission.  http://www.martyncurrey.com/connecting-2-arduinos-by-bluetooth-using-a-hc-05-and-a-hc-06-pair-bind-and-link/ Figure 1: HC-06 FC-114 Bluetooth Modules The HC-05 module can be used to be set as either the master or the slave, while the HC-06 module can only be set as the slave module. In this case, we will be using the HC-05 as the master and the HC-06 as the slave. To do so, pairing and linking of the modules' required. It is so that the modules will connect to each other automatically when powered up. To do so, the modules first have to be powered up and connected correctly. In this case, we are using the Soft.Ser

Week 13 - Integration test - PLX-DAQ, Chase vehicle simulation, LoRa interface

We have finalized on the plan of integrating the system as shown in Figure 1 , and we will start working on it this week and the following weeks till completion. However, this is only a suggestion of our own design which may not be the actual design used for SunSPec 5, as we have yet to carry out further tests on practicality. Figure 1: Telemetry System Overview The main problem of interfacing wireless communication with Arduino is that due to the way the Arduino receives it, it will receive char by char per loop. So any other parts of code in between the sending and receiving part will be sent along each time a char is sent. For example, the word "test" is being sent, and there is another program to send a voltage value, per say "50". The receiving end will receive in the following order: " t ", "50", " e ", "50", " s ", "50", " t ", "50". There is a way to get around this
