What you'll learn

  • How set up an Arduino Robot

Course content

2 sections11 lectures38m total length
  • Introduction to the course2:18

    Explore a beginner-friendly, open source physical computing platform with Arduino; learn to set up a robot, write basic code in the Arduino IDE based on C++, and program the microcontroller.

  • Getting started with an Arduino Robot3:34
  • Installing Drivers2:33

    Install Arduino drivers on Windows, mac os x, and linux using platform steps; then name the robot in the preloaded app and power it with four a batteries or USB.

  • Upload Text Sketch2:36
  • How to move the robot2:05
  • How to change the motor speed1:31
  • How to make noise with your robot1:01

    Learn how to make noise with your robot by using simple, audible, and long beeps and by playing music from an SD card, with initializations for the robot and speaker.

Requirements

  • Passion for robotics

Description

This course will show you how to use your Arduino to control a robot, while providing step-by-step instructions on the entire robot building process. You'll learn Arduino basics as well as the characteristics of different types of motors used in robotics. You also discover controller methods and failsafe methods, and learn how to apply them to your project. The book starts with basic robots and moves into more complex projects, including a GPS-enabled robot, a robotic lawn mower, a fighting bot, and even a DIY Segway-clone.

  • Introduction to the Arduino and other components needed for robotics 
  • Learn how to build motor controllers
  • Build bots from simple line-following and bump-sensor bots to more complex robots that can mow your lawn, do battle, or even take you for a ride

What you’ll learn:

  • Basics of motor-control
  • Basics of PCB design and fabrication
  • R/C control and decoding
  • Autonomous sensor guidance


Who this course is for:

  • Everyone with passion for IT, robots and programming
