Hi Loïc,

your experiment to substitute Aversive++ with RIOT as HW abstraction looks great to me. Its nice to see an example of coordinated actuators steered by a remote wireless RIOT node.
Actually I would love to see your robot running on the ground.
I think its a really nice example for a one hop and one way communication between nodes, and It might give a good impression of the RIOT hardware abstraction possibilities
(Similar to the RC car example of @haukepetersen [1]).

IMHO I think the RIOT wiki would not be the right place for it.
Some time ago we also made an example project [2] which is also not present in the wiki pages of RIOT. One reason why its not there is that it "just" uses a bunch of documented and described features provided by RIOT, such as RPL, CoAP etc. The other and even more important reason is that the blog offers a lot of additional and, regarding the RIOT wiki, redundant information which could confuse a new user searching for specific help on a topic.


I think if you could give more details on migrating from Aversive++ to RIOT, like give a step by step guide for someone that wants to move to RIOT but does not know how to begin, it could perfectly fit in the RIOT wiki.
Maybe something comparable to [3].


Best regards,

Martin

Hello,

Some month ago, I made an experiment to make my personal robot work with RIOT. I should have done this sooner, but I just made a small document that describes how I did that : https://github.com/astralien3000/test_riot_buggybot/wiki/From-AversivePlusPlus-to-RIOT

I was wondering if it was worth adding this to the RIOT's wiki. Maybe it is not complete enough. What do you think ?

Cheers,

Loïc
