In the last few posts I made a basic remote controlled Robocar using Arduino Uno R3. Even though I call it a Robocar it is just a car which can follow a set of preprogrammed commands. There is nothing “Robotic” or “Intelligent” about it. With an ultimate goal of making an autonomous Robocar I have […]
What is the use of a robot if it is always tethered to the computer! Today’s goal is to wirelessly control the robot. Send commands without the need to connecting it to a laptop. I plan on doing this using an IR module receiver. I chose this because it is easy to setup and there
Today’s main goal is to connect Arduino Uno to the motors using the motor driver and if possible code some instructions to move the wheels. If you have been following this series, checkout my first post Day 1: Setting up Arduino and gathering parts. Voltages and Currents Before we get started, a little introduction to
This is my first post in a series of posts describing my journey with the goal of building an autonomous robot which can navigate by itself. The robot will look like a car and I plan to use it as a security guard in my front yard. Gathering required components Most of these components can
