Stella Self-Balancing Robot Powered by Nucleus RTOS on TI Stellaris
Technology Overview
ABSTRACT
Meet Stella a remote controlled, self-balancing robot powered by Mentor Graphics Nucleus RTOS and developed with Sourcery CodeBench also from Mentor. Using a stock TI Stellaris development board and TI's ZigBee wireless kit, Stella showcases embedded system features such as connectivity, power management, and low footprint while maintaining real-time characteristics. Stella demonstrates how decreasing the complexity of your application code by leveraging an RTOS vs. a single event loop design greatly enhances your ability to scale and re-use your software design - even across multiple target platforms
