Basic Arduino Autonomous Sumo Robot Tutorial

Arduino Arduino UNO R3 Asumo Auto Sumo Autonomous Sumo IR Sensor Singapore Robotics Games SRG Ultrasonic Range Finder


Basic Low Cost (<RM300) Arduino Autonomous Sumo Robot

This autonomous is suitable for standard autonomous sumo robot competition which use black color game field with white color boundary.

Components Required:
1. Arduino (UNO / Nano) x 1, Don't use Arduino Leonardo
2. Ultrasonic Sensor x 2
3. Line Following Sensor x 2
4. Motor x 2
5. Motor Driver x 1
6. Battery x 1
7. Jumper Wire (Female to Male) x 1
8. AWG 16 Wire (Red & Black) x 1m each
9. Dean Connector x 1
Total component cost: RM 279.10

Extra Component:
1. Charger x 1

Arduino Library Required:
1. New Ping Library (library for ultrasonic)

Wiring:
1. Solder dean connector to AWG 16 red & black wire (20cm)
2. Solder wire (red & black) to both motor.

Programming:
Troubleshooting:
1. Check IR sensor for color detection. black (LED off) & white (LED on) by changing the sensitivity using potentiometer from IR sensor.
2. If ultrasonic cannot detect object, then increase the value of "MAX_DISTANCE" from Arduino line 3 & 4.
3. If motor run different direction, exchange connection from IN1 & IN2 (IN3 & IN4) jumper cable pin.

Note:
1. Don't overuse your LiPo battery until less than 11.1V.

  14. Dieser Artikel über den „schlüsselnotdienst münchen“ in München hat mir die Augen geöffnet. Mir war bisher nie klar, wie wichtig es ist, Zugang zu Notfall-Schlosserdiensten zu haben. Es wäre großartig, wenn der Artikel auf einige reale Szenarien eingehen könnte, in denen diese Dienste das Leben der Menschen erheblich verändert haben.
