Pin Outs Wiring and Sensors by Body Area

The following are DB25 Shell connectors allowing modular disassembly of RADley as needed. The head can be removed by unplugging from the torso and the torso can be removed from the top base as well. The lower base can also be removed as needed allowing break down and work access on the various areas.

Each platform area may have a concentrator board that provides for signal, +5v and Ground depending upon needs. This allows some flexibilty without having to run a lot of extra power and ground runs but is overkill in some areas.

Ribbon cable runs from the DB25 connector to either the next connector boards or to hooded ends that then plug into the Mega or the Mega sensor board as needed.
