Project mazerob

Project mazerob is a robot that autonomously solves a maze. The system runs on Java Virtual Machines on a personal computer and a Lego NXT Brick configured as a master-slave architecture. Project mazerob was partially funded by UANL through the PROVERICYT.

Summary

The slave is a wheeled vehicle with a rotating ultrasonic range scanner, built with a Lego Mindstorms NXT kit, running software in package mazerob.nxt. The master is the PC running software in package mazerob.pc; it drives the NXT/slave to solve the maze. Package mazerob.conn helps with the communication link between the PC/master and NXT/slave through a Bluetooth connection.

PC is the main application entry, it parses command line positional arguments to configure the NXT. Executing a Robot method specified by the RemotelyControllable interface invokes the corresponding Robot method. The link between the instances methods is implemented over a Bluetooth connection, mapped by constants specified by CommandCode.
