What is it?

Multi-purpose Mecanum wheeled robot

STM32F4 programmed in Micropython
- internal + pcb
  - timers and pwm
  - accelerometer (the one on STM32F4)
  - audio synthetizer (the one on STM32F4)
- external
  - Ultrasounds HC-SR04
  - CNY70 - ir light sensor
  - 4 dc motors via 2 L293 boards
  - 7 segment display
  - buttons
Raspberry Pi (3) programmed in Python3
- cam port
  - Raspi Camera v2.1
    - with cheap wide fish-eye lens from ebay (changed myself)
- touch port
  - not gonna be used
- usb
  - wireless gamepad
    - with 2 sticks for movement control
  - webcam
    - idk about 3 of them to get more info about surroundings
  - external audiocard (for microphone as rpi does not support audio input)
  - dvb-t reciever
    - fm scanning and stuff
- jack
  - speaker
not decided where to connect
- lcd tft display TFT8K3654
- 2 servo (s90g) pan-tilt gimbal for camera

stm32
- control
  - motors
  - other peripherals which needs more precise hw timers + pwm
rpi
- rpi2mcu communication
  - control commands sent to the STM via <insert communication protocol>
    - currently UART over pin wires
    - future I2C / SPI
- image processing
  - OpenCV3.x @ Python3
  - usage:
    - 3d reconstruction
    - obstacle avoidance
    - motion detection
    - 2D tag localisation and parsing
      - line following
      - barcode scanning
      - OCR
    - deep learning
      - object detection
      - face detection
      - emotion detection (from face)
      - gesture detection
- voice synthetizer
  - android synthetizer
- voice control
  - jasper
- sdr (software defined radio)
  - via usb dvb-t reciever hack (hackaday)
- display on tft lcd
  - display statistics
  - display robots pretty face
- multidisciplinary
  - translator
    - from spoken to voice synthesis
    - from OCR to voice synthesis
