Has anyone ever thought about making a FEZ simulator ?
We somes friend we made a robot with 2 FEZ Panda. One for doing all AI, taking high level decision and the other one receiving sensors informations and driving the motor.
I’d like to developp some kind of simulator which would allow to test the AI without the 2nd card and all the sensors motors.
Right now the communication between the two card is using UART, so my wish would beto use the same protocol wirh the simulator to be sure the AI card won’t notice the difference.
Regarding the simulator, i’d like to developp some king of graphical interface (2d) where i could see the robot moving in some kind of map and were i could trigger some sensor in real time on my PC.
I was thinking, I would need to developp a simple Winform in .Net but what about the communication between the PC and the PAnda? Is there somme kind of USB convertor i could plug on my PC to emulate an UART card?
Others ideas?
