November 2, 2009 Wii Remote Power Requirements Indoor Positioning - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

November 2, 2009

 Wii Remote  Power Requirements  Indoor Positioning System  Tasks for this week

 Hard to find source code or MicroCART program which gives raw Wii Weekly Meeting data for testing purposes. Agenda  Wii connects to computers in Lab 2018 currently, and this  Wii Remote lab has many remotes which  Power Requirements can be used for testing as well  Indoor Positioning Systems as charging stations.  Tasks for this week  Our Wii remote has been successfully disassembled this week  Net weight without case=22g  Need to find a way to incorporate IR pass filter into mechanical design.

 Helicopter MicroCART  Requires 7.4VDC  Motors are easily the largest Weekly Meeting current draw out of the onboard components Agenda  Wiimote  Wii Remote  Requires 3VDC max  Normally takes 2 AA batteries  Power Requirements  Each AA supplies 1.5V with capacity of 2700 mAh  Indoor Positioning Systems  2AA in series provide 3V with capacity of 5400 mAh  Tasks for this week  Wiimote will last around 25 hours using both the accelerometer and IR sensor  5400 mAh/25 h = 216 mA average current  Voltage divider will therefore need a power rating of (7.4V- 3V)*0.216A = 0.95 W

 Innovision Tracking Systems MicroCART  MaxTRAQ Weekly Meeting  Basic 3D System  Either 60 Hz or 120 Hz Agenda  $5000 to $5500  Wii Remote  MaxPRO  Power Requirements  Upgraded Motion Capture Software  Indoor Positioning  Can reach 250 Hz Systems  $9000 - $28000  Tasks for this week  WorldViz PPT Links  Very Precise and Fast  http://www.innovision-  Has option of additional systems.com/Products/Systems.ht sensors that measure roll ml  http://www.worldviz.com/prod pitch and yaw ucts/ppt/pptx.html  $10000 - $30000
