Greetings AS3 COMMUNITY,

 

My enquiry is for your guidance, formatting or example with my project: 

 

PROJECT:

Adobe Flash UI RC Transmitter sending TTL via AS3 Socket Class to a Virtual Com Port assigned to a Pololu Maestro Servo Controller.

 

PROJECT GOAL:

  1. Simulate a RC Radio Transmitter with a AdobeFlash UI in .SWF Format. 
    1. The RC_Transmitter_UI.swf will: 
      1. Graphically represent the Sticks & Knobs seen on “RC Radio Transmitters”
      2. Interpret the X & Y Coordinates of the UI Sticks
      3. Interpret the Value of UI Knobs or Pots
      4. Assign these values to Declarations as “Channels”, example “9 channel RC Transmitter” 
      5. Send these Declarations as “TTL” via AS3 Socket Class
      6. I/O via AS3 Socket Class the “TTL” to a Pololu Software Virtual Com Port
      7. Resulting control of the Pololu Maestro Servo Controller. 
      8. Thereafter you control your RC Robot or Airplane with Adobe Flash
  2. AS3 UI for RC Servo Controllers & Robotics.

 

PROJECT HARDWARE: 

  1. TouchScreen PC Laptop:
    1. The TouchScreen PC Laptop will input 2 Mouse Pointers controlling the RC_Transmitter_ UI.swf & simulating the RC Radio Transmitter Sticks on the TouchScreen Laptop Display. 
      1. Example the Microsoft Multi-Point Mouse SDK
        1. Microsoft Multi-Point Mouse is required as there are at least "2 Sticks" on RC Transmitters.
  2. Servo Controller & Software: 
    1. Pololu Maestro Servo Controller & Software including Virtual Com Ports. 
      1. The Pololu Maestro Control Center Software:
        1. Installs Pololu Virtual Com Ports in the Device Manager
          1. Command Port
          2. TTL Port
        2. Controls the Servos
        3. Script Editor

PROJECT REFFERAL: 

  1. If you have opportunity, download the Pololu Maestro Control Center Software & review how to network a “AS3_Socket.swf” to the Pololu Virtual Com Ports resulting TTL I/O with the Pololu Software and controlling the Pololu Servo Controller.
