Course Description
Have you always wanted to build a robot, but weren't sure how to get started? This course will take you step-by-step through the build process.  Each section of the course includes lessons, assembly videos, sketches and demos. You will be able to show off your new obstacle avoidance robot based on the Arduino Uno by the end of the course. Â
Audience
This course is for anyone with an interest in Arduino and robotics.  Students will get to assemble, code and test a functioning obstacle avoiding robot. It is recommended that you write some basic sketches using the Arduino Uno so you become familiar with the platform.
What you will learn:
- How the Arduino Uno works
- How bipolar junction transistors work
- How an H-Bridge works
- How the Arduino motor shield works
- How DC motors are constructed and work
- How DC motor speed control works
- How servos work
- How LEDs and photodiodes work
- How infrared and ultrasonic sensors work
- How the Sharp GP2Y0A21YK0F Distance Measuring Sensor works
- How the Parallax PING Ultrasonic Distance Sensor works
- Obstacle avoidance algorithms
- How to assemble the robot components
- How to write sketches to test the drive system, servo, and sensors
What am I going to get from this course?
- You will understand how motor drive system components work
- You will be able to build a mobile robot that implements DC motor speed control
- You will understand how IR sensors workÂ
- You will understand how ultrasonic sensors work
- You will be able to write sketches to test a robot drive system and robot sensors
- You will be able to write sketches to test obstacle avoidance using an IR or ultrasonic sensor
- You will be able to modify the robot or build a more advanced oneÂ
