DXY Robot

This my first robot ;)  and I am working in finishing it this summer.

 

 

My main goal is making an intelligent automated robot.

Main Specifications:

4x GHM-12 DC Motors

4X 4" Mecanum Wheels (More DOF)

Arduino Mega 2560 + Mega IO Expansion Shield V2.3

7 X Ultrasonic Sensors

I just started this project today and I will need some time to post more information about this project. Hopefully, I will be done putting all parts together next week. Also, It seems that I will have to install encoders because the rotation speed of all wheels is not the same.

I will be glad to get some suggestions about encoders.
