Using the LiDAR with the VMX:

     For Java and C++, the required version numbers are:

• • GradleRIO: 2020.3.2.30
  • Studica.json: 1.1.28

     To update GradleRIO:

• • Select the VMX-PI extension in VS Code
  • Choose update WPILib Version
  • The new version will now be downloaded and cached to the project

     To update Studica.json

• • Select the WPILib extension in VS Code
  • Search for Mange Vendor Libraries
  • Select: Check for updates (Online)
  • There should be a checkbox for V 1.1.28 of the Studica.json
  • The new libraries should download and cache to the project

     Sample code for how to use the lidar to our examples repo on Github: https://github.com/studica/WorldSkills-Example-Projects/tree/main/Lidar%20Test%20Code.

The Sharp IR Distance Sensor GP2Y0A21YK0F uses a beam of infrared light to reflect off an object to measure its distance. Because it uses triangulation of the beam of light to calculate the distance, it is able to provide consistent and reliable readings which are less sensitive to temperature variation or the object’s reflectivity. The sensor outputs an analog voltage corresponding to the distance of the object, and can easily be read using an inexpensive analog to digital converter (ADC) chip.

The Ultrasonic Distance Sensor Bracket is used to secure the Ultrasonic Distance Sensor to the Studica channel.

This pack contains a noncontact distance measurement module that works at 42 kHz to transmit a digital signal to the TETRIX PRIZM Robotics Controller. The module detects the range of an object within 3 to 400 cm, enabling your robot to sense its surroundings. Comes with a mount, connecting sensor cable, and the hardware for attaching the sensor to the TETRIX hole pattern

This pack contains a line-tracker module that transmits a digital signal to the TETRIX PRIZM Robotics Controller, enabling a robot to follow a black line on a white background or vice versa. The sensor consists of two parts: an IR-emitting LED and an IR-sensitive phototransistor. Comes with a mount, connecting sensor cable, and the hardware needed for attaching the sensor to the TETRIX hole pattern.

Offers a replacement for a lost or damaged Ultrasonic Sensor Mount.

The Cobra Line Follower Array provides 4 X QRE1113 IR reflectance sensor mounted on a 9mm pitch Each sensor is comprised of two parts - an IR emitting LED and an IR sensitive phototransistor. When you apply power to the VCC and GND pins the IR LED inside the sensor will illuminate.

The Studica Line Sensor Board consists of 4 IR LED/phototransistor pairs, making it a great detector for a line-following robot.  The Line Sensor Board allows the robot to tell objects or surfaces apart based on how dark or light they are. It shines a beam of infrared light out onto the object, and measures how much light is reflected back.

Each sensor provides a separate analog voltage output. The sensor board is an infrared emitter/receiver that is able to differentiate between a dark surface (with low IR reflectivity – 3.3V to 5V) and a light surface (with high IR reflectivity – 0V to 0.5V). However, this range can vary depended on the installed height of the sensor board. 

The optimum height distance is 3-5 mm; however, the reflectivity values will change depending on distance. A daylight filter is built into the sensor.
