NLP, Algorithms, Machine Learning, Data Science, tutorials, tips and more
This project is all about flying robots, AKA Quadcopters. There’s a wide range of copters out there and each one has its advantages and disadvantages. Like you see in the image below, I used a 6 rotors copter.
Objectives
My goals are showing some basic quad-copters programming, talking about copters flight concepts and showing some of the autonomous flight algorithm which navigates the copter between GPS points while avoiding obstacles in its path (completely on its own).
This tutorial is the second part of the Arduino Robot project, here is a quick reminder of the first part. This part will focus on the hardware and software assuming you already followed the first part and assembled the robot.
As always, I’ll start with the final Robot just to keep you focused
So our goal is to make this robot drive while avoiding obstacles ahead. Remember that last time I showed how to connect the motors to the motor shield. Now I’m going to show how to connect the servo motor and the ultrasonic sensor and operate them. After I will have all the parts connected, I’ll write the Arduino board code which will start navigating the robot.
In this tutorial I will focus on building the arduino robot itself, I will explain in each step which parts I used and how I connected them.
I decided to start with the final Arduino Robot just to keep you motivated (:
