Build a Controller: Schematic Diagrams & Info

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around building a controller, specifically in the context of a spy robot project that involves remote control and data transmission using a Raspberry Pi. Participants are exploring schematic diagrams and programming aspects related to controllers.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks guidance on building a controller and requests schematic diagrams, indicating a lack of specificity in their initial query.
  • Another participant emphasizes the need for clarity regarding the type of controller being discussed, suggesting that "controller" could refer to various devices such as microcontrollers or industrial control panels.
  • A participant clarifies that they are building a spy robot and are interested in using a transmitter to send data to a Raspberry Pi, questioning if their current setup is appropriate.
  • Some participants affirm that the device in question appears to be a transmitter and suggest ensuring component compatibility.
  • There is a suggestion that programming the controller is necessary to transmit the desired data, but the specifics of how to do this remain unclear and require further elaboration.
  • One participant expresses confusion about programming the controller and inquires about the use of an encoder and decoder they have purchased.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on the specifics of the controller or the programming process, indicating multiple competing views and unresolved questions regarding the implementation and functionality of the components involved.

Contextual Notes

The discussion lacks detailed information about the specific components being used and their compatibility, as well as the programming methods applicable to the controller. There are also unresolved questions about the participant's prior knowledge and the exact requirements for their project.

Welcome to the PF.

Please be much more complete in your question. The term "controller" can mean many different things. Do you mean a microcontroller (uC) board, or an industrial control panel, or what? Can you give some examples and post some links? What have you found in your searching so far?
 
Sorry for the lag of information in my previous post. I'm currently building a spy robot which required a remote control which I'm planning to use a transmitter to transmit data to a raspberry pi. I juz wan to knw if I'm on the right track and is the diagram below a transmitter? How can i make it transmit data that i wan?

Looks like a transmitter to me. Well, first thing to do is to make sure all the components are compatible :)
 
What are you asking? You can make it transmit the data you want by programming the controller to present the data you want at the data terminal. But I'm sure that's not going to tell you anything you don't already know. You need to be more specific in your question.

So, try to ask specific questions.

Try googling for remote robot control
For example

Thx for your reply. I wanted to ask that how can you program the controller did you program the ic? i juz bought a encoder and a decoder how do i use it, any help?
