Building a Remote Control Robot with Automotive Grade Linux
summary
Uses Automotive Grade Linux on Raspberry Pi 3 to run a DIY remote-control robot, building a minimum headless AGL image via Yocto layers with repo and Gerrit, Jenkins CI and OTA support. Controls two DC motors with a homemade Texas Instruments motor driver board, uses wiringPi for software PWM (notes that a microcontroller with hardware PWM is preferable), and receives commands with lircd infrared remote. Prototype on a breadboard works; next step is a two‑layer KiCad PCB for a robust build.
