Djeff-209 MkI

Djeff-209 is my first robot, based on the LMR Start Here robot.

I swapped out the wheels for tracks, and an SRF05 ultrasonic in place of the Sharp IR sensor.

At first, Djeff would try to avoid invisible objects, so I simply added an additional range check before initiating collision avoidance (I was getting "ghost returns" from the SRF05).

Articles (and code) I used to get off the ground:

"How to make your first robot" and "How to connect SRF05 to Picaxe 28 pin Project Board".

My code is attached.
