The friendly Deus Ex Machina that promises that it is not Skynet
A long term project of mine, where i am building a vaccum robot.
Parts used so far:
- Raspberry Pi 3 b+
- Ebay motorboard
- 12v battery 6800mAh
- Bracket with belt tracks connected to it
- 2x 12v dc motors
Status so far:
- Fry the first RPI, and buy a second one
- Got the raspberry pi communicating with motorboard
- Build a basic motor control structure
- Add a basic keylistener for testing
- Started on design of 3d case
- Got SSH, and alias setup
- design a 3D case, and print it
- Mount 3d case, battery and RPI to bracket
- Remote control over VNC
- Ultrasonic sensors, distance measuring, collision avoidance
- Create vaccum cleaner
- 3D-model vaccum parts
May implement this later on:
- Room mapping to clean more efficiently
- Buttons to select clean mode
- OLED display to show status
- Controlling robot with JoyStick and/or through web api
- Surface detection, power increase on carpet, power decrease on hardwood floor.
