Do you remember which hardware is for what? The GoPiGo3 board is for interfacing with sensors and actuators, while Raspberry Pi is used for computing tasks. We will cover these topics in detail here.
Getting familiar with the embedded hardware
The GoPiGo3 board
This customized board (https://www.dexterindustries.com/GoPiGo/learning/hardware-port-description/) provides the general features that are expected from a controller:
- Real-time communication with sensors and actuators.
- Interface input/output (I/O) through a serial peripheral interface (SPI) that feeds the data from the sensors to the Raspberry Pi and may also receive commands for the actuators (also from the Raspberry Pi, after running the logic in its CPU for every...
