Pixy2 ZumoMotor codes to other motordrivers

Pixy Software
#1

In pixy 2 Line_zumo_demo code, the motor driver used is ZumoMotor driver. Is the line Zumo demo code can be use to other motor driver like L298N?

#2

Hello Daniel,
There isn’t anything preventing you from using a different base or motor driver. You’ll need to modify the sketches we provide however (e.g. line_zumo_demo)

Hello Edward,
We are currently using AFmotor library with a different motor driver because zumo isn’t available.I hope that you may give us suggestion or advice in connecting pixy2 to our driver.

Hello Daniel,
I haven’t used the afmotor library/hardware, but it looks capable. Can you be more specific about the type of suggestion/advice are you looking for?

Hello Edward,
In the line_zumo_demo code, how to make the turn in the intersection without using barcodes.

The code at line 132:

 if (pixy.line.barcodes->m_code==0)
  pixy.line.setNextTurn(90); // 90 degrees is a left turn 
// code==5 is our right-turn sign
else if (pixy.line.barcodes->m_code==5)
  pixy.line.setNextTurn(-90); // -90 is a right turn

you can set the next turn to whatever you want by calling pixy.line.setNextTurn().

Here is the API that describes more, such as what setNextTurn does:
