Original abstract
Presented paper presents ARM mbed microcontroller usage as a control unit in student's autonomous convoy project. The ARM mbed devices are based on 32-bit ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers and are widely used for a number of students and science projects. Proper selection of appropriate HW platform is typical issue, especially nowadays when students can choose from many different and low-cost platforms such as Raspberry PI, Beagle Bone, Arduino or TI Launchpad. In presented paper we would like to show the working solution of control unit for autonomous vehicle based on ARM mbed and show why we chose this platform from mentioned HW competition. The scaled model of an autonomous convoy project is made, consisting of a number of vehicles and it is necessary to have a powerful control unit to handle all calculations.
