BoByBot (11-13-14)

Sample for Robot

Objective: Testing Arduino with motors

Materials: Arduino Dualmilanova , Bread Borad ,  2 Servo Motors , Red Yellow Black Wire , Wire cutters , Internet

Methods: For today we test to see if the servo motors on the Arduino. First we loaded up the example code on the Arduino software called sweep. Which controls 1 servo motor, we then added another motor, and tested if it worked. We then added a third motor.

Data:

Results: The code worked with the first motor , we then adjusted the code so that it would controlled the second motor, then we added a third motor and adjusted the code again. The code worked for all three motors. The motors each have three wires, the Red is power, Black is ground and Yellow is for the signal(for controlling each motor). For our project we will need to use PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) for the signal.

Data: 

Discussion: For next time we hope to have the equipment to start construction on BoByBot. And also understanding the code for the bluetooth module and motor shield.
