A simple robot under construction "Robin v1.0"

A Simple Robot Tutorial

"ROBIN v1.0"

(On request by some friends).

I am making this robot completely on request, for the purpose of making Simple tutorial for making your own robot just for beginners (Note: not an expert level one, just a simple one for beginners , anyone can make it in simple steps . And coding is also not complex.) It will be based on simple AGENT PROGRAM (A.I)

Once I am done with this robot, i will upload a complete tutorial for making this robot on my website and blogs.I found a small broken toy car which had perfect tires , so decided to break it and decoded to transform it into a small robot.


This robot has no sensors , I call it as “robin v1.0” , in next robot I will add an IR [Infra red ]sensors and make it as an object detection and it will be “robin v1.1” , for now lets begin with our “robin v1.0”

I will use simple D.C motor and pic18f4550 microcontroller. Pic18f4550 is one of my favorite microcontroller because of its USB features. [to be very frank u can use 555 timer too to make my robin v1.0 , but since you cannot code a 555 and microcontrollers gives more degree of freedom to code, so I will go with microcontroller , plus u can code it the way u want it.] In My next version would be Robin v1.1, v1.2 where i will use Sensors and some complex motors like . Stepper motor and Servos. {PWM}



More details coming Soon

Keep reading, Thanks

JHD 16 2a LCD working with pic18f4550 "PICDEM FS USB"

JHD 16 2a LCD working with pic18f4550 "PICDEM FS USB"



Its a small demonstration of a jhd 16 2a lcd, jhd 16 2a is a small 2x16 character lcd , that i am controlling with PIC18F4550 microcontroller .




jhd 162A lcd interfacing‎ 2x16 char , 16 pins

The board is a home made PICDEM FS USB development board that i have made, the jhd 16 2a is connected to the microcontroller , i have used small C# application that i have made with a open-source LCD framework found over Internet. The Application is written C# that is controlling the text.

I will be posting /posted a detailed tutorial on my page and on instructables.

ROBOT wheels. Sensing Position with a mouse wheel.

ROBOT WHEELS


Using mouse wheels, LCD display , pic18f2550 , C# , and MPLAB IDE (HI-TECH C compiler for 18f )


The Project is based on pic18f2550 interfaced with a 2x16 LCD [JHD 162A] and a mouse. I found an unused mouse and decided to use it in my robot.


You can Interface this project with your robot , and have it all displayed as a cool display on the LCD.

This project uses Visual 2010 C# , and is interfaced with pic18f2550



BASE FIRMWARE written in MPLAB IDE and HI-tech C compiler
and for mouse i am using a small software written in c#
in C# i am using mouse wheel event e delta property.

C# CONCEPT
=========

 Create a Mouse wheel event
{
      IF (e.Delta >0)
Display ("forward")
else
Display ("Backwards:)
}

Looks simple right?

:) :)
