Battery LED w/ Teensy LC
[WIP]
Introduction
This "Project Guide" is written to show some of the capabilites of NavQ. In conjunction with a Teensy LC and a strip of WS2812B LEDs, you can add a forward-facing battery indicator light to your drone.
Prerequisites
Software
The software needed to run this project on your NavQ is as follows:
ROS Noetic
MAVROS
You can install this software using the guides here:
ROS1Controlling your drone from NavQ using MAVROSHardware
The hardware needed is the same as the hardware from the I2C guide here:
I2CCode
At the moment, we're just going to paste the code here, and a more detailed guide will be written later.
Teensy code
This code should be uploaded to the Teensy using the Arduino IDE.
NavQ code
The ROS node should be placed in the home folder ('/home/navq/')
The service file should be located in /etc/systemd/system/.
The Launch script should be located in /usr/local/bin/.
Making the ROS node run on boot
Once all of the necessary files are placed in their respective directories, you need to make the systemd service run at boot. To do this, run in the terminal:
