Step 1: Step 1 : ◾L298N Dual Motor Driver Breakout Board

◾L298N dual motor driver breakout board


12 V BATTARY
9 V BATTARY
geared DC motors x 2
The robot is made out of lego

•Motor Voltage: 12

v•SPEED: 122r/min

•Diameter: 25 mm

•Output shaft:10 mm

•Weight: 90g

•L length: 55 mm

•Wheels Diameter: 65mm

Step 2: Step 2 : ◾Arduino Uno

using lego and arduino
◾Arduino Uno
◾Invensense MPU-6050 IMU

SDA - ANALOG Pin 4
SCL - ANALOG pin 5

The IMU is connected to the arduino using I2C bus
u should connect the lcd on the same bus
u add resistance to put 2 devices on the same bus
The motor driver take power directly form the battery so don't have to connect arduino's power to it (i mean the 5V form the arduino), but we need 6 wires to control it, 3 for each motor, one for send the PWM signal for control the motor velocity, and for indicate the direction we want the motor to spin.

Step 3: Step 3 : LCD Display

LCD display

Example Software Sketch for 4 line 20 character Displays:
(NOTE: for displays with backpack interface labelled "YwRobot Arduino LCM1602 IIC V1")
Top to bottom:
GND - GND
VCC - 5V
SDA - ANALOG Pin 4
SCL - ANALOG pin 5
On most Arduino boards, SDA (data line) is on analog input pin 4, and SCL (clock line) is on analog input pin 5. On the Arduino Mega, SDA is digital pin 20 and SCL is 21.
NOTE: The Blue Potentiometer (Photo) adjusts Contrast. If you don't see any characters, adjust it. Start clockwise and back down to where the characters are bright and the background does not have boxes behind the characters.

Step 5: Improvements :

There are some much improvements to do with this robot, this is the first step of many more:
1.The first i want to implement is the position recovery
3.Adding a Wi-Fi shield to control it via internet.
4.Implementation with Raspberry Pi to allow the robot to use a camera.
5.Implementation of a camera and artificial vision for the robot.
6.Use a ball instead of wheels, so hard, but we'll try.
7.add a Bluetooth controller
8.or IR remote control like my first robot with IR


9.you can use step moter instead of the gear one like this video


10.you can add temperature information on the same robot display
