Fun Projects With Elegoo Uno R3 Super Start Kit - Joystick Control for DC Motor

Intro: Fun Projects With Elegoo Uno R3 Super Start Kit - Joystick Control for DC Motor

In this Instructables, I'm going to try to control the direction and speed of a DC motor by a joystick with the help of Arduino, use the components from the Elegoo Uno R3 Super Start Kit available from Amazon.com.

STEP 1: Objectives

There are many Arduino learning kit on the market with various flavors. The Elegoo Uno R3 kit has a cloned Arduino Uno 3 very similar to the original, as well as a good collection of common components and a comprehensive manual with 24 fun Arduino projects with sketches. The objective of this project is to apply the joystick control to the DC motor which has a lot of real-world application.

STEP 2: Parts List

• Arduino Uno
• L293D
• DC Motor
• Joystick Module
• Breadboard with DC Power supply
• Jumper Wires

STEP 3: Schematics

STEP 4: Code

Refer to the documentation supplied with the Elegoo kit for a detailed explanation functional diagram for the L293D IC and the joystick. In particular:

• Lesson 12 Analog Joystick Module
• Lesson 21 DC Motors

how can i use the map function instead of the analougewrite function to do this
