Information

Whitecube on Wheels is a remote-controlled, battery-driven onstage stage. If you want to be mobile with people performing onstage on a stage, WoW fits to your needs. WoW is able to carry up to four people and can be controlled accurately from 0-6km/h by using a WiFi connection. Besides going forwards and backwards it is able to perform rotations around its own axis. Wow is dismountable to make transportation less challenging.

Mechanics

In principle WoW works like a wheelchair with increased wheelbase. Both motors and wheels are taken from a wheelchair. The construction itself is a mixture of wood and welded steel assemblies. YNNOK was designed with Autodesk Inventor .

Electronics

A wheelchair comes with everything you need to maneuver high loads if you rely on battery operation. WoW is equipped with two 150W DC drive units. Compared to DIY solutions, the drive system that comes with the wheelchair is a hassle-free out of the box solution. It provides a joystick, battery monitoring, several speed levels, acceleration management (ramping), automatic motor break release and offers a steering management by speeding the wheels with variable speed. Two 25Ah Pb batteries are used to provide a couple of hours driving fun.

YNNOK en detail

oystick-Imitation

To make the motors radio controlled you need to get data into the system. In general there a couple of ways to do so. The easiest way is to manipulate the joystick mechanically. (Look at this amazing solution on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88oaO4ipiYk ). Another approach is to get deeper into the CAN-Bus communication between the power module and the joystick to send appropriate data with an external uC. A less complex but still satisfying solution is to fake the joystick. A quick look at the joystick itself shows that it consist of two potentiometers working as a voltage divider. To generate these two variable voltages from zero to five volt a Teensy-Board is programmed in Arduino. Two PWM channels are turned into analog signals with a low pass filter. The filter uses only a resistor and capacitor, for a very simple and low cost way to obtain an analog signal. As safety is an issue when moving +200kg the Teensy-Board is programmed to bring the virtual joystick to a neutral position if there is no data longer than 100ms.

-== WiFi access ==
-YNNOK uses a TL-WR1043ND WiFi router with OpenWRT to provide wireless access. The router comes with an USB port that is used to talk to a Teensy 2.0 Board programmed with Arduino. Several LUA scripts are used to send data via the serial port to the Teensy Board and then the data is transmitted via the RS-485 databus to YNNOK. The Teensy Board is  redundant so far because the data could be easily transmitted via a USB -> RS-485 converter but in the future the board can do some more useful stuff like illumination dimming and so on. YNNOK has an inner counter that counts up if the door status changes to OPEN. After door opening it sends back the new value via the bus. To read the counter ser2net is used. Just listen to the right TCP port and get the actual door count!

-== FAQ ==
-'''Is it safe?'''
-No. The read-only transponders can be read while you wear them in your wallet and then it is possible to replicate them later.
-But compared to a normal lock this is more annoying than lock-picking which is not possible with YNNOK. Using the WiFi access in combination with an ordinary social-hack might be the easiest way to skip YNNOK.
-'''What happens during power blackout?'''
-YNNOK will not work as there are no backup batteries so far. '''Update:''' I got two nice 25Ah PB-batteries BUT some flatmates are scared of FIRE! This is the reason why they are safely stored and not in use...
-'''How many people are using YNNOK?'''
-Five.
-'''Whats the actual doorcount?'''

-(19.08.2014)
-'''Is this Open Source?'''
-YES! Download the CAD data here or contact me at ''nihilist at online dot de''.
-'''Is there a to-do list?'''
-The status LED illumination needs some improvement. A nice web GUI and an Android App/Widget would be nice.
