This was my first self made solution of a moving machine.
Building a robot can be a very complex task. You have to know about
mechanic, electronic and programming.
Based on a fischertechnik
chassis this robot should do nothing more than moving around. It has
no sensors,
except two bumpers. A ST62E65 microcontroller, acting
as brain, controls two Fischertechnik-motors.
Feed back from the
wheels is given by two increment disks, mounted at the axles.
Two
H-bridges are the hardware driver, amplifying the PWM signal from the
controller.
Additional I built a LCD-module, that, connected to
the controller-board, makes debugging possible.
It turned out to
be very useful.
