To describe the performance or work of electronic schematic of Light Detector Robot as like in figure 1 above we can divide into three parts. In sensor, Microcontroller, and driver dc motor. In this part we use LDR as light detector or sensor. LDR will....

The module costs GB38. 00 and the transducer costs a further GB17. 00. In fairness, the Polaroid module does the job it was intended to do, which requires the range, but that job is not to provide the eyes of a small robot. The circuit is designed to be low....

An obstacle avoiding robot is an intelligent device, which can automatically sense and overcome obstacles on its path. It is developed without micro-controller in order to eliminate critical circuits, difficult programming etc. All you want to do is to just....

Bridges allow your robot to control high current motors. They literally "bridge" between the low-current logic circuitry of your robot`s brain to the high current demanded from the motors. Many, but not all, use the common "H" arrangement of control....

Schematic of Big Trak`s motor driver circuit. The toy includes 9112 and 9113 transistors (and sometimes 2N6715) because the 75494 chip can`t supply enough current to run the Big Trak`s motors by itself....

The real usefulness of the SR latch comes during input switch transitions. Let`s assume the input switch is a break-before-make and the switch starts in the up position. From the prior analysis, the inputs values when the switch is up are low, low, high,....

The Flip-Flop Robot drives forward until it hits an obstacle, and then reverses until it hits another obstacle. This back-and-forth process continues indefinitely. By limiting the functionality to this very rudimentary behavior, it can be generated from an....

The simplest solution for implementing joystick control for a robot would be to program the actions in software in a microcontroller. But, since many readers prefer off-the-shelf parts, this circuit is going to be made with diodes, resistors, transistors,....

Most of my circuits still use 5 V regulated power for the chips, because 8-bit microcontrollers run faster and some sensors require 5 V. Since 5 V is more than enough for even a white LED, I`m not concerned with the voltage needed by a particular LED in use.....

The laser-pointer detection circuitry is able to determine when a laser light is aimed at a particular photosensor. If the laser is aimed at the top sensor, the comparator chip outputs on . If the laser is aimed at the bottom sensor, the comparator chip....

To understand how the 74AC14 PWM circuit works, let`s zoom in on the section of the schematic containing the trimpot, diodes, capacitor, and the first inverter logic gate. The capacitor is empty (discharged) when the power is first applied to the circuit.....

Discrete blinking LEDs are convenient, but the blink rate and blink duration are not configurable. I tried goofing around with using transistors, resistors, and capacitors to alter the blinking LED. In the end, I had so many extra electronic components that....

One of the first lessons that an electronics student learns is that an LED provides light from current flow. But, did you know that an LED put in backwards provides current flow from light Yes! It`s true. Hook up a high-quality ultra-bright red LED by itself....

To obtain the power supply graphs on the previous page, I didn`t stand outside for two days straight measuring the power sources with a voltmeter. Instead, the circuit itself is able to independently monitor the power sources with the addition of a few....
