Power Requirements Indoor Positioning Systems Tasks for this week
Hard to find source code or
program which gives raw Wii data for testing purposes.
Wii connects to computers in
Lab 2018 currently, and this lab has many remotes which can be used for testing as well as charging stations.
Our Wii remote has been
successfully disassembled this week
Net weight without case=22g Need to find a way to
incorporate IR pass filter into mechanical design.

Power Requirements
Indoor Positioning Systems Tasks for this week
Helicopter
Requires 7.4VDC Motors are easily the largest
current draw out of the onboard components
Wiimote
Requires 3VDC max Normally takes 2 AA batteries
Each AA supplies 1.5V with
capacity of 2700 mAh
2AA in series provide 3V with
capacity of 5400 mAh
Wiimote will last around 25
hours using both the accelerometer and IR sensor
5400 mAh/25 h = 216 mA
average current
Voltage divider will therefore
need a power rating of (7.4V- 3V)*0.216A = 0.95 W
