I have an Adeept Robot HAT, but the Blue Robotics BlueOS works natively with the Navigation hat (it’s probably pedantic, but neither of these two hats meets the requirements of Pi Hats). I was looking to see what the functionality…
In my previous posts, I have managed to get webcam feeds and Flask serving a webpage. Now I want to use NGINX (pronounced “engine x”) to bring everything together and run it all on port 80 (HTTP). I have moved…
In my post about getting Flask running as a service, I included a screenshot with a large dark area as the background. In this post, I will work on filling it with an image from a web camera, which will…
On my ROV, I am running the Python web server Flask. I want it to start automatically when the Raspberry Pi starts. For this, I need to make it into a Service. Flask displays the following warning on startup. Stating…
Subsequently to the Serial interface issues, I bought an Adeept Robot HAT from Amazon. I have been keeping an eye on it for a while. The schematics and example code for the Robot Hat are available to download, which means…
The Arduino Compatible Pro Micro and the Arduino Leonardo both use the ATmega32u4, which has built-in USB communications. While this eliminates the need for a secondary processor or UART chip, it allows the Leonardo to appear to a connected computer…
As part of my K9 and ROV projects, I am using at least one Arduino to control components such as the K9’s ears. Since the Arduinos will be fixed to the robots, I will program them via the Raspberry Pi.…
BlueOS is Blue Robotics Raspberry Pi software to control ROVs, it combines the functionality required to control robots and low-cost hardware
Over on Facebook, Ed Vergalen is looking to sell a VideoRay Pro 4 Plus BASE ROV System for £29,950. Videoray Pro 4 Blueview sonar C130 Manipulator Hull Crawler Kit Lynn enhancing package Extended Tether Deployment System (TDS). Approximately 305 m…
A beautiful print using my roll of Filamentive grey filament, this is the battery and electronics sledge for my 3d Printed ROV. I am doing my design in fusion360, and printing the parts on our Prusa MK3s. Thanks to Ravi…
After the success of printing the sledge for my DIY ROV in the last post, It is now time to try and wire it up, I am using two of these Youmile 3S Battery Protection Board Modules, they claim to…
I have been working on my DIY underwater ROV (remotely operated vehicle) for a fair while. It is going to be an underwater robot, sometimes people call them remote controlled submarines. I have moved some of the development to my…
