Here`s a simple schematic of one of the parts, the idea is that if the probed voltage is below half point, one LED will be on, otherwise second one will be on. Also, now I think I`ll need to oompff the power on this thing, proper dc motor with some gearbox that`ll have enough torque is 12V, I think (correct me if I`m wrong of course). Now, I migh

t actually ditch that transistor all together and just end up using two 741. Because the idea is to have H-bridge drive motor one or the other way depending on the input voltage. When its below 1/2 Vcc, one way, above - the other way. Will it work is a different matter, but I`ll save quite few transistors if that`s the case. Since my motor turned out to be crap, I want to try 2x 1. 5v-3v motors with 1:100 gear, loads of torque ! But they`re heavy, and need shit loads of current (0. 35A on 3V each !). Also from the video the motors look quite slow for a balancing robot, You mainly need fast motors so it can correct it before it leans too much And as with most fast and sensitive regulations you will likely need some resistors and caps in feedback loops to tune the response of the regulator. I saw someone make a balancing robot using a 555 timer so you like try looking at that for ideas When stopped with pliers it draws about 1A, so that might be something to watch out for. If I had to design the h-bridge myself, I would probably have some cut-off protection once current draw goes over certain amount. Speed is important too, but that can be cured with voltage. Motor is 1. 5V-3V, so I reckon I could get away with 3. 3 or even 3. 6V if need be, to make it faster. and I think I need to find analog gyro. I think ST have a chip that does that, but suckers don`t like to support small businesses and refuse to send me samples. So I`ll...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
