// Hardware List:

// MCU Board: Pololu (pololu.com) Baby Orangutan / B-328 Robot Controller (Atmega 328 / 20MHZ crystal)
// Accelerometer Option 1: Freescale 200g MMA2301Eg (Mouser.com)
// Accelerometer Option 2: ADXL193 (available pre-mounted from Sparkfun - http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=9332)
//	"Config Mode" can account for minor differences in accelerometer specifications without changing constants (it's all linear math)
// NPN Darlington transistor(s) to drive motor(s)
// 		MJ11032G - moderate power - about 20 amps @ 10v (see data sheet for more info)
//		TIP120 (Radio Shack) - useable for very small test platforms 
//		Jaycar SY-4086 - Solid state relay - 100 amps / 32V (requires an extra diode / minor wiring differences - read the spec sheet closely)
// Some kind of motor(s)
// 		Either 1 or 2 motors may be used (maybe more if you get creative)
// A heading LED (up to 3 Watts)
// 5V Regulator (see note below)
// Some resistors (detailed in wiring notes)


// General Notes:

// This system uses an accelerometer to calculate the rate of rotation based on G-forces around a given radius.
// That data is then used to light up an LED once per rotation - giving the appearance of the "front" of the robot.
// The user can adjust the heading beacon by moving the remote control left or right.  
// To move - the system turns a motor on when that motor is in the correct position to result in a net movement the direction the robot is intended to go.
// For example - if the heading beacon is on approximately between 10 o-clock and 2 o-clock it indicates movement will be towards 12 o-clock.
// Pushing "forward" on the remote causes the robot to turn on the motor(s) between 6 and 12 o-clock each rotation - the net direction of travel being towards 12 o-clock.
// When the robot is desired to be standing still - the system alternates when the motor(s) are powered to cancel out any translation.
// This description is somewhat of a simplification - see video footage at http://www.nothinglabs.com/openmelt/ for details.


// This code assumes the motors will be driving the bot counter-clockwise (...clockwise if south of the equator)

// Motors are always on or off.  Throttle control is achieved by adjusting the duration the motor(s) are on each rotation.
//		For instance - at low throttle - the motors may only be on in the example above between 8 and 10 o-clock)
//		At high throttle - the motors may only be on between 5 and 1 o-clock

// When spinning up motor(s) will be on all the time until a certain RPM is reached (this is set in a variable in the code)

// This code will work with 1 or 2 motors without any special configuration changes (in fact - you may not immediately notice if a motor fails)

// Most references to "braking" in the code don't literally mean braking a motor.  Being "in braking" refers to time during the spin in which a motor may or may not be powered to create translation
// All motors are fully powered "before" and "after" braking 

// The only thing this code depends on specific to the Baby Orangutan as opposed to any other Atmel Atmega328 board is its motor driver which is used to drive the heading LED
// this could of course be replaced with a transistor.  A low-power LED could also be driven directly by the Atmel.
// On the other hand - the Baby Orangutan is small, cheap and has standard stuff like a 20mhz crystal all connected correctly
// (don't go trying to use a naked Atmega328 unless you know what you're doing - this is the voice of experience)

// Code should work at speeds besides 20mhz - but "timer_ticks_per_ms" will need to be changed
//		RC constants like "forwardback_center" also will need to be adjusted since they are measured in timer ticks
//		Same goes for PWM values


// Brushless Motor Support
// Open Melt now supports brushless motor controllers that support 305 hz PWM input refresh rate or faster
// 		Max PWM input rate is usually not listed for ESCs - so some experimenting may be needed
// 		Testing was done with the HobbyWing Pentium 18a controller
// 		The new version of the HobbyWing Pentium line is known as FlyFun
//		Other models in this series may work
// Be sure to set use_pwm_esc = 1 
// The motor controller(s) signal pins (PD2 and PD4) should be directly connected to the ESC signal pin(s)
// PWM is done at 305 hz (some tricks are done to do this on non-PWM pins)
// If you encounter issues - review the variables "pwm_throttle_..."
// Support for 2-motors has not been specifically tested - but really should work
// Thanks to Richard Wong for figuring this stuff out!


// Mixing on the transmitter should be off.  Servo reversing should also be off on all channels.

// The voltage regulator will need to be capable of powering the LED - which may draw over 500ma (current draw from other components is probably under 100ma).
// This may not sound like a lot - but with conventional regulators - the higher the source voltage - the lower the available current.
// A standard regulator is probably fine up to about 11.1v driving an LED at 2 Watts.  Above that - a "switching" style regulator may be required.

// If you are using an MMA2301Eg  - the pinned side with the "dot" needs to be towards the "center" of the bot
// If you are using Sparkfuns's mounted ADXL193 - the arrow should be pointing -away- from the "center" of the robot
// You can get away with mounting the accelerometer at about any angle as long as it's not fully "backwards"
// This orientation results in an increase in voltage with G's as opposed to vice-versa (0G is around 2.5v, 200g is about 5v)
// Intentionally mounting the accelerometer at angle (say 45 degrees) - effectively decreases the G's it sees and increases its range 
// Use http://www.djblabcare.co.uk/djb/info/6/User_Tools to verify you're mounting the accelerometer at a position that doesn't exceed its limits

// If you are unable to calibrate tracking - consider the possibility your accelerometer might be mounted backwards

// If you're having problems with reboots / the receiver cutting out / or losing calibration  - the cause is often low voltage
// If you think you're going under 7.4v under load - there's a pretty decent chance any problems are voltage related
// In short - running off two LiPo cells at 7.4v nominal may work with a light motor load - but if you're having trouble - going to 11.1v might help
// A large capacitor (think 4700uf or so) may also help

// Programming Note:

// It seems about 1 out 100 times I program a Baby Orangutan - it kills it - and am not able to program it again.
// This is most likely not the fault of the Orangutan  - but probably the result of static / a loose wire / etc.
// The lesson is that you probably don't want to be reprogramming the board right before an event - unless you are fully prepared to replace it


// Physical Build Notes

// More weight seems to result in poorer translation
// More power seems to result in better translation
// Two-wheeled robots that are significantly out of balance seem to suffer from erratic translation
// If a one-wheeled bot is scraping - look at how it's balanced "vertically" - ie try moving weight higher / lower 
// What works well small may not scale up (larger / heavier designs have generally performed poorer - even if the power seemed ample)
// Softer wheels seem to result in better translation (--foam-- works really well)
// The default LED "heading" value is correct if motor 1 is at 9 o-clock, motor 2 is at 3 o-clock (or absent) and the LED is at 6 o-clock
//		Using this setup isn't mandatory - but should let you skip the "Calibrate Heading Direction" of Config Mode
// One-wheel bots with hard wheels seem specifically prone to "bounce" off floor imperfections when spinning - resulting in poor translation
// A spinning robot may see internal static G forces approaching 200G's - remember this may spike MUCH higher upon impact - expect things to fail in unexpected ways
// If something is not well-secured to the robot - expect it to become a projectile (dangerous)


// Wiring Notes:

// Google datasheets for pin layout on all items
// This list should include all non-obvious required connections
// You are ultimately designing your own circuit - I'm assuming you can figure out how to wire in a voltage regulator / etc.
// Lines indicating actual connections are marked with "**"
// If this list seems short - there really are only a handful of connections.  The wiring isn't that complicated.


// Accelerometer
// The Freescale 200g MMA2301Eg is a surface mount component - Sparkfun.com's 20-pin SOIC to DIP Adapter may be used to help with soldering
// ** VDD goes to PD0 on Baby Orangutan - (power for the accelerometer is sourced from the microcontroller)
// ** VSS goes to Ground
// ** VOut goes to PC4 on Baby Orangutan


// Receiver
// ** Needs at least one of the "positive" pins connected to 5v (probably from a voltage regulator)
// ** Needs at least one of the "ground" pins connected to ground
// ** Signal for Elevon (forward / back) channel goes to PB2 
// ** Signal for Aileron (left / right) channel goes to PB1
// ** Signal for Throttle channel goes to PB0


// Darlington Driver(s) / Motor(s)
// ** The "Base" on the darlington driver connects to a 100 ohm resistor
//		** The opposite side of the resistor connects to PD2
//		** The resistor may not technically be needed - but assures current levels don't exceed what the chip can provide
// ** "Emitter" on darlington connects to Ground

// ** + Motor Terminal connects to + Battery
// ** - Motor Terminal connects to "Collector" on Darlington
//		If the robot turns the wrong direction - swap the connections

// ** If using a second Motor / Darlington Driver - the connections are the same - except that the Darlington's "Base" should go to PD4 (again through a 100ohm resistor)


// LED
// The LED is driven using the Baby Orangutan's motor driver
// The motor driver can source 1 amp continuous - don't exceed this.
// Determine a resistor of appropriate value based on an LED calculator (Google it - note - the "source" voltage is about 5v)
// If needed - you can use a higher value resistor to reduce the current draw (this can help if your voltage regulator seems too hot)
// ** Positive side of the LED should connect to the resistor
// 		** Other side of resistor goes to M1A on the Orangutan
// ** Negative side of the LED goes to M1B on the Orangutan
// If the LED doesn't light up - it might be connected backwards


// Baby Organgutan
// ** VIN needs 5V (probably from a voltage regulator) 
// ** GND goes to ground
// All other pin connections are listed previously under the corresponding components 

// LED Status
// When LED flashes slowly (about 2 times a second) - it indicates it's not seeing a signal -or- it's getting a signal where the control stick isn't centered
//		Note - control-stick left / right center is automatically set when entering configuration mode (make sure your stick is centered)
// When LED flashes quickly (about 10 times a second) - it indicates it has a signal with the control stick centered when entering
// Note - a receiver providing a "fail safe" signal looks like a real signal to the bot
// If you want to verify the robot is getting signal - move the control stick up - you'll see the LED's pulsing change (or an RPM count from the last spin)


// Pre-compile Calibration (optional)
// First - attempt to estimate the "radius" the accelerometer is from the center of the bot
// If you've intentionally angled the accelerometer - increase that value by some percentage (take a guess - figure 2x increase for 45 degrees)
// Place that value (in centimeters) into the "radius" variable in the code
// This is only a guess at calibration - you'll need to fine-tune things with the robot actually running



// Entering Config Mode
// Before entering config mode:

//		1. The robot needs to be spun-down and flat 
//			The "zero" value for the accelerometer will automatically be recorded when entering config mode
//			If the robot is sitting at a slight angle - that's probably OK
//			Entering config mode before the robot fully spins down will -TOTALLY MESS UP- calibration (if you do this - exit config mode - then re-enter it)
//		2. Throttle should be all the way down
//		3. Move the direction control stick -STRAIGHT- back and hold it there for 2 seconds - then release it
//			The left/right center value for the stick is recorded when entering config mode (the current "trim" setting for the stick will be seen as center)
//		4. The LED will start to flash more slowly (about 3 times a second) to indicate it's in config mode


// Config Mode has three different "sub-modes" selected by the throttle control
//	Low throttle - Tracking Calibration
//	Mid throttle - Heading Calibration
//  High throttle - Testing Mode (normal control)
//	Note: actual throttle speed is always locked at 50% in configuration mode (can be changed by adjusting the associated variable)

//  Calibrate Tracking:
//  This process will get the robot to "track" (keep the heading LED pointing a given direction) correctly
//  Increase the throttle just above the point where the robot is spinning
//  Move the stick to the left or right until the heading LED tracks correctly 
//  When you're near calibrated - you should see a single LED streak taking up about 1/3rd of the rotation
//  If the LED takes up more than 1/3rd a rotation - you're tracking too slow - hold the stick to the right to correct this
//  If you see multiple LED streaks (smaller than 1/3rd a rotation) - you're tracking too fast - hold the stick to the left to correct this
//	Calibration can account for accelerometer positions from as low as 0.1x up to 10x the "radius" variable
//  You can also adjust tracking by directly manipulating the "radius" variable 

//  Calibrate Heading Direction: 
//  This process will help get the robot to drive "straight" - ie - not backwards / at a 35 degree angle
//  	1. Spin up the robot by increasing the throttle to 100% (heading LED should not be pulsed)
//  	2. Move the control stick forward briefly (this will cause the robot to translate)
//  	3. Note what angle the robot is translating at - consider if you would want the LED beacon to be moved to the left or right to track properly
//		3. Reduce the throttle slightly until the LED pulses
//  	4. Move the control stick left or right to move the heading LED in the same direction
//			This adjustment is "non-proportional" - to make a larger change - hold the stick left or right for a longer duration
//			In general - calibrating the heading is trickier than calibrating tracking - may take a few tries to get it right
//		5. Repeat steps 1-4 until moving the stick forward results in the robot tracking straight ahead
// If you don't have good luck doing the "real-time" calibration - you can just try setting the "led_adjust" variable in the code


// Exiting Config Mode
// To exit Config mode - pull the throttle down / hold it for about 2 seconds.
// LED should return to flashing quickly
// Configuration values will then be automatically be saved to ROM (saved even afer you power down).
//		Configuration values are -not- saved until config mode is exited.

// Calibration values will be cleared if you re-program the chip (assuming it has the default "fuse" settings)
// If you've changed the trim on your transmitter since the last time you've entered Config Mode – the act of entering into Config Mode itself will effectively change your tracking
//		(so you'll want to actually do a calibration before you exit).


// Driving Notes

// Robot will (hopefully) remain still until given throttle
// Should spin in place once throttle is applied (assuming control stick is centered)
// Move control stick left or right to adjust heading (fully proportional)
// Move stick forward or backwards to go forwards or backwards (non-proportional)
// Turning too fast can result in a bot getting "unbalanced" - if you have control problems after turning - try turning slower
// Yes - it drives kind of like a regular robot does

// Minor inaccuracies in tracking can be compensated for using steering / adjusting the trim on the transmitter
//		(note this will cause the status LED to show the slower "not-centered" flash pattern when not spun-up)
// Driving constantly forward / adjusting steering to head towards the target seems to work well
// In general - best "translation" (ie movement) speed occurs at roughly half-throttle (full throttle may result in slow translation)
// The heading light will "pulse" over 50% throttle to provide feedback to the driver


// Checking top RPM
// With the robot stopped - push the control stick forward and hold it
// The LED will flash out the top RPM reached rounded to the nearest multiple of 100 (1275 RPM = 13 pulses)
