Ardumower Sunray is an alternative Firmware (experimental) for the Ardumower. It requires PCB1.3, Arduino Due, ArduSimpleRTK kit and a phone (Android/iOS). It uses RTK to localize itself without a perimeter wire.

Demo video: coming soon

Significant changes compared to Azurit Firmware

• Optimized for PCB 1.3
• Optimized for Arduino Due
• Optimized for RTK

Requirements

• Ardumower motors using odometry
• Ardumower PCB 1.3 (incl. MC33926 motor drivers)
• Arduino Due
• SimpleRTK2B - starter kit LR IP67
• Bluetooth BLE module (CC2540) and a smartphone (Android/iOS)

Firmware

1. Download Ardumower Sunray Firmware and unzip it: https://github.com/Ardumower/Sunray/archive/master.zip

2. Open the Arduino sketch 'sunray.ino'.

3. Start Arduino IDE, and upload the sketch to your PCB1.3.

2. After uploading, start your Ardumower - after a short while you should hear a 'beep'. Ardumower is now ready for your commands!
