A Simple Antweight R/C combat robot-for Intermediate Level

INTRODUCTION:

In this guide u will see how to make a simple ant weight R/C combat robot using a Sabertooth 2X5 R/C. The 'bot doesn't necessarily have to be used in combat - it is a pretty fun toy to drive around the office too! . The Sabertooth 2X5 R/C will be used to interpret signals from a radio control system, and vary the motor speed so you can drive the robot around. The project requires basic knowledge of electronics (Volts, amps, battery polarity and wiring) and intermediate soldering skills.

Parts list:
Sabertooth 2X5 R/C motor driver
Motors,wheels,and chasis
Hobby radio control transmitter and receiver
Batters(atleast 6V)
Ceramic capacitors
Misc wire and soldering tools

Overview

As you can see, power will go from the battery in to the Sabertooth motor driver. The Sabertooth has an internal 5V regulator that it will use to power the receiver. The receiver will pick up your control info i.e. the direction you want to drive in, and it will signal that information back to the Sabertooth. The Sabertooth will then process this information, and vary the voltage and direction going to the motors. We will wire the 2 motors in parallel on each side so they will appear as one motor to the Sabertooth.

The chassis
One of the most time consuming things in building robots is constructing the chassis. If you do not have metalworking machinery available to you, you might want to check out Inertia lab's website . It will allow you to start work on your robot right away without having to deal with metal shavings embedded in your eyes.

Introduction To Micro controller

The integrated circuit from an Intel 8742, an 8-bit microcontroller that includes a C.P.U. running at 12 MHz, 128 bytes of RAM, 2048 bytes of EPROM, and I/O in the same chip.


A Micro controller (or)M.C.U. is a computer on a chip . It is a type of Microprocessor emphasizing self-sufficiency and cost-effectiveness, in contrast to a general-purpose microprocessor (the kind used in a PC). The only difference being in a microcontroller and a microprocessor is that a microprocessor has three parts - ALU, Control Unit and registers(like memory), but the microcontroller has additional elements like ROM, RAM etc.

Programming Environments

Originally, micro controllers were only programmed in Assembly language, or later in C code. Recent micro controllers integrated with on-chip debug circuitry accessed by In-circuit Emulator via JTAG enables a programmer to debug the software of an embedded system with a debugger .

Some micro controllers have begun to include a built-in High Level Programming Language Interpreter for greater ease of use. The Inter 8052 and Zilog Z8 were available with BASIC very early on, and BASIC is more recently used in the popular BASIC STAMPS MCUs.

Some micro controllers such as Analog Device's Blackfin processors can be programmed using LabVIEW, which is a high level programming language.

A simple Beetle Bot--for Begineers

The following article will show you how to build a simple robot, called "The Beetle Robot".

It's great for beginners and easy to do.

This is the Beetle Robot you are going to build:



Before starting, I suggest you to read the complete tutorials. This will greatly lower the chances of you making a mistake.


Tools Needed:

• soldering iron
• electronic solder
• diagonal cutter
• Mini glue gun
  

Components for the robot

• 2x - small 1.5 Volts motors
• 2x - small paperclips
• 2x - big paperclips
• 2x - batteries AAA or AA
• 1x - battery holder AAA or AA
• 1x - 2 cm of heat shrink
• 1x - wooden pearl (for the caster)
• 1x - meter of electric wire
• 2x - Sub-mini lever SPDT switches
  

Here are the serial numbers of the components and tools

Component

Number

soldering iron	64-2184
electronic solder	64-006
diagonal cutter	64-2951
1.5 Volts motor	273-223
battery holder	270-398
SPDT switch	275-016

Most of the components can be bought for much cheaper at any good electronic store.


Here is all the parts for the construction the beetle robot.

1. Cut the electric wire in pieces of 6 cm each, 13 times.

Strip 1 cm at each end.

2. Regroup all the components.

3. Solder each wire to each components except the two batteries.

4. Take the battery holder and make a connection to the connection.

This will give a third connection.See picture below.

5. Turn the battery holder up side down so the batteries point to the ground. Glue the two switches on the battery holder in a V form


Take the big paperclip and make the caster like the picture below.

You can make a nice looking caster or a normal one

Brief Introduction To Robotics

Robotics is the science and technology of robots, their design, manufacture, and application. Robotics requires a working knowledge of Electronics,Mechanics,and Software.

The control of a robot involves three distinct phases - perception, processing and action (robotic paradigms). Sensors give information about the environment or the robot itself (e.g. the position of its joints or its end effector). Using strategies from the field of Control theory, this information is processed to calculate the appropriate signals to the actuators (Motors) which move the mechanical structure. The control of a robot involves various aspects such as path planning, pattern recognition, obstacle avoidance, etc

The control of a robot involves various aspects such as path planning, pattern recognition, obstacle avoidance, etc. More complex and adaptable control strategies can be referred to as Artificial Intelligence.
