# NoeticMaze

NoeticMaze is the embedded control and navigation project used for the NUCLEO-F446RE demonstration. The system integrates lidar, IMU, wheel encoders, differential-drive motor control, ICP-based localisation, grid mapping, A* path planning, path following, Bluetooth telemetry, and FreeRTOS task scheduling.

This ZIP contains the source code, header files, generated STM32 configuration files, CMake build files, linker/startup files, and supporting resources required to compile and run the demonstrated system on the NUCLEO-F446RE.

```

The root `CMakeLists.txt` recursively includes all source/header files under `App/`, links the STM32CubeMX generated code from `cmake/stm32cubemx`, enables the Cortex-M4F hard-float options, links selected CMSIS-DSP sources, and generates `.hex` and `.bin` files after the ELF build.

## Custom Modules and Hardware Abstraction Components

- `App/lidar`: implements UART DMA based lidar byte reception, protocol parsing, 360-degree `LidarMap_t` construction, kinematic frame filtering, and a FreeRTOS queue-based zero-copy buffer pool.
- `App/imu`: contains the MPU6500 related driver code and DMP/attitude support used to update yaw and yaw-rate state.
- `App/motor`: abstracts PWM, encoder feedback, motor PID, yaw-rate control, normal stop and emergency stop behaviour for the differential-drive chassis.
- `App/global`: provides shared robot-state snapshots, map-to-odom transform state, trimmed-path state, unit conversion helpers, and central configuration constants.
- `App/algorithmBrain`: converts lidar polar scans into Cartesian point clouds, performs ICP/localisation, maintains the high-resolution map, and triggers planner requests when goals, obstacles, or robot pose drift require re-planning.
- `App/Planner`: maintains the lower-resolution planner map, runs A* search, applies obstacle/cost handling, smooths the path, and publishes the latest safe path through a global snapshot and FreeRTOS event flag.
- `App/printf`: provides debug output, Bluetooth packet/protocol support, and telemetry transmission helpers.
- `Core` and `cmake/stm32cubemx`: provide the STM32 HAL abstraction for GPIO, DMA, SPI, UART, timers, interrupts, and FreeRTOS task creation.

## CLion Build and Flash Configuration

This project is built and flashed from CLion using CMake/Ninja and an ARM embedded GCC toolchain.

Recommended CLion CMake profile:

- Profile: `Debug` or `Release`
- Generator: `Ninja`
- Toolchain: ARM GCC / `gcc-arm-none-eabi`
- Toolchain file: `cmake/gcc-arm-none-eabi.cmake`
- Build target: `NoeticMaze`
- Build directory: `cmake-build-debug` or the directory selected by the active CMake preset

The repository also includes `CMakePresets.json` with `Debug`, `Release`, `RelWithDebInfo`, and `MinSizeRel` presets. In CLion, open the project root, reload CMake, select the required preset/profile, and build the `NoeticMaze` target.

Recommended CLion download/debug configuration:

- Configuration type: `OpenOCD Download & Run`
- Name: `NoeticMaze`
- Target: `NoeticMaze`
- Executable binary: `NoeticMaze`
- Debugger: bundled `GDB multiarch`
- Board config file: `board/st_nucleo_f4.cfg`
- GDB port: `3333`
- Telnet port: `4444`
- Download: `If updated`
- Reset: `Init`
- Before launch: `Build`

ST-LINK debug server settings used on the development machine:

- Transport interface: `SWD`
- Initial speed: `8000 kHz`
- ST-LINK GDB server executable: `D:\program files2\STM32CubeCLT_1.21.0\STLink-gdb-server\bin\ST-LINK_gdbserver.exe`
- STM32CubeProgrammer path: `D:\program files2\STM32CubeCLT_1.21.0\STM32CubeProgrammer\bin`

## Build Output Notes

After a successful CLion build, CMake runs `objcopy` to generate:

- `NoeticMaze.hex`
- `NoeticMaze.bin`

These files are generated from the ELF image in the active build directory and correspond to the firmware demonstrated in the Product Quality Video.

## Known Issues

- A* path planning may occasionally be triggered at unexpected times, which can cause oscillation in the robot motion. This is especially common when the map contains unknown prior regions or U-shaped turnbacks, and is pending follow-up fixes.
