Radio controlled Arduino robot.

This is my second robot, based on the Arduino (http://www.arduino.cc ) platform, and controlled by a joystick button via a radio module.

It weighs about 170 grams and spans 8 cm excluding wires. It is powered by a 9V battery, which drive, through an H-bridge, two parallel 60rpm motors, which enable it to turn on the spot.

The main components are:
2 Arduino Duemilanove boards:

2 gear motors:

A joystick switch:

An Infrared Proximity Sensor, which is not activated in the video, but will enable the robot to avoid obstacles when programed with a suitable script:

This is COOL ! I love that ! you can'put som webcam there ... And give some power tranzistor amplifier to your transmitter comand ... And you make a spy remote cam :> I love that . ( So ... you also need a transmitter to broadcast the image from the cam) is not that complicadet) Succes !
