"DIY - THE EXCELLENT LINE TRACER ROBOT WITHOUT MICROCONTROLLER"

\"DIY - THE EXCELLENT LINE TRACER ROBOT WITHOUT MICROCONTROLLER\"
Hi
I am Ajinkya Dixit 
this is my first robotics project - " THE LINE TRACER ROBOT WITHOUT MICROCONTROLLER "
These robot contains no any kind of microcontrollers , instead it uses only integrated circuit (IC) and some other electronics parts.


There is a great problem with me about microcontroller's, because of my trade (INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY).  I have no any knowledge about  microcontroller's but , electronics and robotics is my hobby and strength also. So to making these line follower robot  i have struggled from last two months. Finally it's made!!!! . I have made these robot without anyones help and lessions about     electronics and robotics.
 
So r u interested in making these robot ??? then see the following steps.

Step 1COMPONENTS U WILL NEED:

For this project u will need following components :
1. IC - L2963D The motor driver IC .x  1
2. LDR'S (Light Depending Resistors) x 2
3. White LED's x 2
4. Resistors 10 k x  4
    Resistors 100 Ohm x 2
5. POT'S  20k x 2
6. Generel PCB'S.
7. 7-Segment displays (i have used 5 displays. It depends on what u want to display.)
8. 9 v Battery x 2
9. 3 or 6 v DC Geared Motors x 2 (http://www.solarbotics.com)
10. Some other miscellineous parts.

Also the main circuit board is my homemade PCB made out of generel purpose pcb.
to make this u will need:
1.A small PCB(Single sided).
2.Laser printer(only laser printer is better) & OHP sheet.
3.FeCl3(Ferrus Cloride) PCB Etching Solution.
4.Cloths iron.

Gathered Parts Together?
Ready?
ok.......
