Introduction Some fellow members of The Abbenay Hackspace (an open hacker space based in Stockholm, Sweden) are embarked on an ambitious project with the aim of being the first to build an autonomous sailing robot which is capable of circumnavigating the Earth. The project is currently in the early prototyping stages and this RC Servo

This project is designed to develop as a robotic vehicle that can be controlled by a cell phones. DTMF commands from a phone send to another cell phone which is mounted on the robotic vehicle. These commands are fed to a PIC microcontroller of 8-bit architecture to operate the vehicle movement through motor interface. Conventionally

Design Goal: The TechBot1 is a small line following robot designed for for the 1998 Embedded Systems conference in San Jose California. It was built by Jerry Merrill and myself and was designed as a promotional robot that would follow a black line drawn on a dry erase board. Motive Power: The TechBot1 uses

Robots look cooler when they have a sinister green glow. Better yet, when that glow exists for a functional purpose it’s even better! Here I show how to make a custom robot and use LED’s to not only enhance line following, but also make it work in the dark too. Step 1: The Mechanical Design

This robot is controlled by a visual basic program (through the serial port), and can move in three different velocities by a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal generated by a PIC microcontroller (16F877). The robot can be operated in two modes, “normal control” and “light tracker” modes. In the normal control mode, the robot can
