to mark as completed ViPER
ViPER
Versatile Programmable Experimental Robot
ViPER is not done as of now, but I do have The Motherboard (18F4620) and the LCD board done. I am working on finishing the Motherboard and the Motor Driver board. I had to do some repair on my LCD's Backlight, as the pins themselves were not working, so I had to make a jumper cable for it.
Picture overview and explanation:
001: Overview of the entire ViPER system.
002: Motherboard, with a great picture you can read the PIC
003: LCD board with pot to adjust the brightness.
004: Fixed LCD put into socket.
005: entire system again.
More stuff soon.
The great thing about the ViPER system, is all you have to do is make a new module and connect it up to one of the 2x5 headers. That's all there is to it.
