Photo Gallery
Testing using the digital pins to allow the two arduino's to communicate. DID NOT WORK.
Tamiya base plate with dual motor gearbox underneath
Tamiya dual motor gearbox attached to base plate, underside view showing gearbox.
The tiny hex-head bolt was not tight and had fallen out. This required repair.
both motor control and sensor control boards mounted.
Side view of the arduino's mounted on the Robolipho.
RoboLiPho with full wiring (except sound as I see now) and using I2C between the boards.
What's a robot without googly eyes?
thanks to continual problems getting hobby motors to be more like stepper motors, i kept having my axels fall out.
File this away under ideas that didn't work.
