My very first robot

Let's Make Robots Robots
1

This project is my very first robot project.

It has a cybot foot base with 2 DC-motors and 1 wheel in front.

I use an Arduino processor as his "brain".

For now my robot can only drive around with a L298N driver. But it has PWM support!

I will use ultrsonic detection, mounted on a servo to detect objects and walls.

This project was started 5 yrs ago. Finally i will try to continue it... 

 

Driving around

  • Actuators / output devices: 2 DC-motors 6V
  • CPU: Arduino
  • Power source: 4x AA 1.5V cells and a 9V battery
  • Programming language: C
  • Sensors / input devices: none yet
  • Target environment: indoor on smooth surfaces

they are very easy to press, perfect for playing around before you IR, or ping))) sensors arrive, you can also make your own IR sensors, with an IR LED, and an IR detector:

these work with a digital pin, so in case you lack analog inputs, they will work :)

No, I do not have these.I

No, I do not have these.

I never really completed my cybot.

I made it untill the remote controle with the games, then I stopped with Cybot.
