For my project "The Spirit of Amsterdam" we have to measure the speed of the vehicle. To do this we use the 'Lenord + Bauer Speed Sensor Gel 2474' with an optocoupler to deliver the data to an atmega32. The code however remains private until the race in Denmark except for the documentation which can be downloaded here.
A couple of days ago I got inspired to write a serial communications library in the C programming language to facilitate one-way communication between two atmega32 devices.
Today I joined the "Spirit of Amsterdam" team. The international “Racing Aeolus” race will be held at the Ringkøbing-Skjern airport in denmark and the "Spirit of Amsterdam" wil be participating in the race. Last year, the "Spirit of Amsterdam" came first place and we are hoping to repeat this feat.
