Week 7 - Software Installation Part 1

Week 7 :  17th - 23th Mar


Objective:
  • Focusing on coding of the project

Contents:


Picture above show the architecture of the Arduino Uno. With that, the input and output of the project should be in the right port.The PWM port is for the motor of the robot, Analog port is for the sensor.

Week 5 - Hardware Installation Part 2

Week 5 :  3th - 9th Mar


Objective:
  • Installation the hardware of the project
Contents:

In this week, I am focussing install of the Arduino Controller, the IC Regulator and battery.




The output of the LiPO battery is around 11V. Because of that, IC regulator used to reduce the 11V to 5V. The voltage for the input Arduino is directy from Lipo battery which is 11V. 

Week 4 - Hardware Installation Part 1

Week 4 :  24th - 2nd Mar


Objective:
  • Installation the hardware of the project
Contents:

In this week, I am focussing on the installation of the base of the robot. All of the 4 motor DC were install as pictures below:

Week 3 :  17th - 23rd Feb


Objective:
  • Preparation on main components
Contents:

The picture above show the list of the main components that have brought for preparation of the project.

Week 2 - Changes of the Component

Week 2 : 10th - 16th Feb


Objective:
  • Identify the changes of the component
  • Reasons of the changes
Contents:

From previous idea, the motion of the robot are by using the servo motor. After surveying and analyse, the servo motor are replaced with the dc motor 5V. The reason are:

  • DC motor more cheaper than servo motor
  • 4 DC motor for each wheel capable for the motion of the robot 
Previously, the idea using 2 unit of servo motor replaced with 4 unit of DC motor 5V which are for every wheel of the robot. 


Week 1 - Preparation for FYP2 - WPB 49906

Week 1 :  3th - 9th Feb

Objective:
  • Preparation on project hardware and software
  • Surveying and buying the component of the project
Contents:

After surveying the component for 3 days, here the list of the component that have been brought:

1. 1 unit of L298 motor driver shield - RM 50.00
2. 1 unit of Ultrasonic Sensor LVE21 - RM 145.00
3. 1 unit of 4x4 robot base - RM 200.00
4. 1 unit of LiPO Battery - RM 80.00
5. 1 unit of Arduino Uno R3 Controller - RM 90.00
