Robot uses IR to see

ir_robot



Spiralbrain is building a cool robot that can see what is around it by using IR. The robot base is a RP5 Tracked Chassis which looks to be quite a versatile robotic platform.  Is it just me or does it sound like a small angry dog when it slowly growls and inches forward, then gets frightened and lurches back. 🙂 The PIC 18F4550 code is sure to be available when the project is complete just like the other projects.

“List Of Components added till now:

  1. PIC18F4550 – USB Bootloader, RS232 debug interface
  2. L298N H-Bridge driver
  3. GP2D02 IR distance sensor with laser tracking
  4. SFH 9240 IR Reflective Interrupter for movement tracing
  5. PS2 Joypad, it works! (for testing only)
  6. 74HC07″
