I recently received a Texas Instruments Tiva Launchpad board from another team in the Eurobot contest (thank you Ifrelo ;)) when I told them I was interested in ARM dev. Once I had this board, I looked around for compilers / IDEs, but I quickly realized that most of them were closed source or Windows only. Since I really like to work on my Linux box, I decided to take some time to work on it.

For this year Eurobot, the CVRA is building two different robots, and also doing some computer vision. While this sounds nice, it also comes with added complexity : The two robots have to communicate with the two computer vision boards, and with each other, using the communication architecture below (Debra-4 being our main robot with SCARA arms and Nastya-2 our holonomic platform).
