to mark as completed Proto-Bot
This is a little guy I put together to allow for quick prototyping. I chose to make him instead of a standard test jig because it seemed to be a lot more fun! He is basically built on a proto-board which allows for any quick changes. Overall he is pretty stupid robot. All he can do is handshake with a Bluetooth device and then follow commands. I have been able to connect with him using my cell phone and laptop. The same info is posted on my project website.
The attached files are for the bluetooth module. I am sharing them because they were hard to find. This module can be puchased on Ebay for about $10
The program used on my computer is PocketPuTTY (http://pocketputty.net/)
Special thanks to bittybot and MarkusB for helping to troubleshoot some motor problems!
