Rover V2 Autonomous (with TM1638) - Full Component Test Program

I thought perhaps new owners of the Rover would appreciate a complete program that tests all components easily.

Also included is code to run a TM1638 if you are interested in adding one.

Looking forward to seeing your progress. Do you have any previous robotics experience?

That rover looks really complete. Can you indicate what components you use and what the program does? And of course… videos?

That’s the “off the shelf” Rover V2 Autonomous and Expansion Plate that you sell. I added the TM1638 from eBay for fun.

I’m using the battery pack rather than the LiPo battery so that I can run this thing for many hours, swapping out rechargeable batteries as required.

The program does nothing more than test all the individual components… buzzer, gearbox, encoders, ultrasonic, and IR sensors. It pushes data readings out to the Serial Monitor ( and/or TM1638 ).

I found that locating all the code to do that stuff was a bit of a “Find Waldo”, so I just incorporated everything into one program, along with adding my own code, to result in a single program a new user could run in various ways to understand the Rover base functionality.

Not much to see on a video.

I’m working on some full autonomous tasks that will make for interesting videos. Will post when I’m satisfied with my Rover’s “level of intelligence” :slight_smile:

No, just a lot of programming experience.
