This week I picked up a new project . It’s called a hotbox controller. Is like an arcade controller but with no buttons. I’ll build it to be compatible with Pc and ps5. It will be build with a Pi pico and coded for c++. The picture on top is the button layout and the…

This week was Mother’s Day week, so I spent most of the time working on a gift for my mom. A lot of the time was also spent trying to read the error codes for the golf cart motor driver. The second picture is of Roman using an outside setup to try to read the…

This week I was working on encoders. For better accuracy Hall effects sensors will be used. Now only the PCB will be needed and the encoders are done.

This week Roman and I worked on the wiring for the golf cart motor driver. The 18 pins used in the golf cart are used to control every single aspect of the golf cart. We are currently trying to use it to turn on a motor. Unfortunately, because we lack a working control board we…

This week was mostly tuning in the encoders and taking pins from the golf cart and figuring out what they do. Unfortunately I don’t have a picture but I turned the golf cart on its side.

unsigned long var = 0; int pin = 3; volatile byte state = LOW; void count(){ var++; } void setup(){ Serial.begin(9600); pinMode(pin,INPUT_PULLUP); delay(500); } void loop(){ digitalWrite(pin,state); attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(pin), count, CHANGE); Serial.println(var); } This week was spent entirely on encoders. Finally got them to work now I just have to build the case and set them…

This week I worked on the cable management of the golf cart and how to do it by using plastic ties for it. This week I also worked on encoders for the golf cart breaking system. During next week I will hopefully design a wheel for me to count the rotations properly. For the code…

This week I worked on the stop switches for the breaking system. They will act in the homing of the breaks. Hopefully they can be tested on friday. The first picture is the front switch. It has an ajustable support. The second picture is the back switch wich is in a wooden stand. Next step…

This week Prince and me added two power strips to the soldering stations in order for us to have more outlets. I also worked a lot on the golf cart trying to get it to drive but with no success. Roman, Shubh and me tried to fix the ignition system of the cart. We still…
