PROGRAMMING ROBOTS

Useful robot algorithms in both pseudocode and source code. Because programming is a very huge subject and there are billions of books and tutorials on how to program already written, all I plan to cover is specifically what is important to programming robots not mentioned in common literature.

	Bootloader, Step-by-Step A bootloader is a program used to upload .hex files to your microcontroller without a hardware programmer. Learn how to set up a bootloader for any AVR microcontroller. This will also work for the $50 Robot.
	Computer Vision Tutorial A four part tutorial series that covers vision in biology, image processing, and most vision algorithms.
	Data Logging Tutorial How to use a microcontroller and Hyperterminal for data logging, algorithm debugging, and sensor testing.
	Differential Drive Tutorial Learn about the most basic of robot control drive structures.
	Fuzzy Logic Tutorial Learn how to implement fuzzy logic into your robots.
	Line Following Algorithms Basic robot line following algorithms.
	Microcontroller Cycles Learn how to do timing on microcontrollers without using a hardware timer.
	PID Control Tutorial Implement PID control feedback into your robot feedback control.
	Photoresistor Algorithms - Photovore, Photophobe Learn how how a robot can chase or avoid light.
	Printf() Function Learn more about the C printf() function for microcontrollers. Good reference sheet for printf().
	Timers for Microcontrollers Sample code for setting up and programming timers for microcontrollers.
	Trigonometry Lookup Table Required if you need real-time trigonometry calculations but have a slow processor (such as for omni-wheel robots).
	UART Tutorial for Microcontrollers Learn how you can use a microcontroller to transmit useful data by USB, serial, and wireless using the UART.
	UART Tutorial Step-by-Step An addition to the UART tutorial, giving you practical step-by-step instructions on how to add UART functionality for any AVR based robot - including your $50 Robot.
	Variables in C Learn tricks about programming variables in C. Good reference chart for variable types.
	Wavefront Pathfinding One of the more basic algorithms for robot pathfinding. Includes additional adaptive mapping features.
