What an amazing robot!
I’m amazed to see it react to obstacles in more than one plane. And the edge control is stunning. This is way better than the usual stuff of off look ahead go left/right… etc. Great work!
One word: wow!Care to share
One word: wow!
Care to share the code? I don’t remember seing a robot doing that… How did you do it?

i am happy to see interest
i am happy to see interest in my work
i have attached the arduino source code
the idea is to sense the front cone of space
the head perform 160° sweep at different elevation
topmost elevation is orizzontal to sense height obstacle
other 3 elevations are pointing ground at different angles that means distance from the rover…
so the routine il like this:
set head to 0° elevation and scan horizzontaly from -80° to +80°
set head to -50° elevation and scan horizzontaly from -80° to +80°
set head to -60° elevation and scan horizzontaly from -80° to +80°
set head to -70° elevation and scan horizzontaly from -80° to +80°
set head to 0° elevation and scan horizzontaly from -80° to +80°
set head to -60° elevation and scan horizzontaly from -80° to +80°
set head to -50° elevation and scan horizzontaly from -80° to +80°
and so on…
if abnormal reading: stop motor; repeat at will the horizzontal scan at current elevation; rotate body untill horizzontal scan is clear.
Thanks! I had a look at it,
Thanks!
I had a look at it, but it seems it will take me a while to understand what you’ve done there. Some things are simple to get, but others will take some drawing to actually get why they are that way. Especially the functions in Head2DOF file are hard to get. But I’ll work at it.
Cheers!

Very nice bot my friend. I
Very nice bot my friend. I like the moves of the head and its precision. Keep up the good work for us

Very life like
The turret was a good idea. You have managed to put life into your machine.

Whoah, hold the phone!
You mean there are no floor detectors between the front wheels? All is done with the one sensor on the neck?!
Double awesome!

yeah man chicken style -> go

Great work. Will you install
Great work. Will you install additional sensors for better/faster scanning ?
WOW Amazing project !!!
Very interesting !!! you probably open a new age of Robot project !!
Cheers from Canada !!

For what purpose do you use
