Arduino Tutorial : How To Build An Obstacle Avoiding Robot

Watch carefully

Step 2: Materials : Necessary Materials and Equipments

* Arduino Uno R3

* Adafruit Motor Shield

*HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Module Distance Sensor for Arduino

* Tower Pro SG90 RC Mini Servo Motor

* Bracket / Holder for HC-SR04

* DC Motors and Wheels

* Bovine Wheel

* Plate or something like that

* Jumper

* Battery Buckle 9V

* Battery 9V

* Glue Gun or Cable Ties

Step 3: A Chassis and Sensor Connections

Step 6: For Me + What's Next ?

First of all, I would like to thank you for reading this guide ! I hope it helped you build your own robot and improved your knowledge about robotics and arduino.

I think now it's a good time to introduce myself. My name is Mert . Likes Math, Computers, Robotics and programming. I've just started a youtube channel, hoping to help people, share some of my knowledge and learn myself.

My YouTube Channel

My next Youtube (and Instructables) tutorials will deal with different methods of controlling electronics (Smartphone-Bluetooth control, remote control and much more) and specifically robots. There will also be videos about home automation (controlling every day appliances with your smartphone or computer using arduino). so make sure you are a subscriber so you won't miss them, and I will see you next time.

Bye !

Nice little bot project. Made it fwith a couple of 24v geared motors and whatever i could find at home, code works fine for me. Thank you for sharing. BTW, your blog shows empty page on Opera, Chrome and Firefox browsers. Keep creating

[lohit moharana]

dude your arduino code is wrong so I had to go to a robotics lab to get the code

[junkieofgoodthings]

This is awesome! I want to make a wall-e style one of these. Do you know how I could replace the wheels/dc motor with tracks?

[harshitkrishna04]

sir my robot is not working the program is verified and uploaded but it is not working the servo motor is not rotating and the wheels are also not rotating

only the motorshield and ardunio are getting the current supply and a buzzing sound is been heard anda pop sound after a intervel of time .

[harshitkrishna04]

how to upload the program in the ardunio

[Kanak Shilledar RM]

Your program is giving errors it is not working correctly.

please check it positively.

[MertArduino]

Why do you think it's not correct? Maybe you made a mistake! If you are getting an error, first share the error. Maybe then I can help you.

can u give me the code on text pad

[MertArduino]

You can copy from here: http://mertarduinotutorial.blogspot.com.tr/2016/12/arduino-project-tutorial-01-obstacle.html

thanks!

Please watch this tutorial; https://youtu.be/Es8D1q_b-c4

See sir

[MertArduino]

Only the rotation of the wheels may not be equal. If this is the case, it is enough to replace the DC motor connections in the motor shield.

[King H4rsh]

Sir please help me I really need to know

[MertArduino]

Connections seem right. Is there any problem?
