Projects DetailsHow to build your first Robo
Jan 01, 2013 Posted by Abhi Raj
It is really easy, and it does not involve knowledge of electronics to get you started with robot-building.
Focus in here is on the absolute necessary to get the basics covered.
This is meant to be an eye-opener, after building this, you can build anything and control any electronic device!
Sounds crazy? It is true, you just need to try it to understand how much power is in some of the chips you can buy for a few bucks today. Welcome to the world of microcontrollers :)
The programming example I write in the end is to make this robot what you would call "wall avoiding" (it will sniff around and explore based on which objects it meets, what is on the left, right and ahead), but it can be programmed into anything - easily. If interest is shown I will provide more programs for it.
The 28 pin project board in this package is like a game of Mario Bros; Fun and full of extras and hidden features, making you want to play over and again. This includes the main brain, the PICAXE-28X1.
