I love robots. Normally the ones I build are quite large and wouldn’t fit in your pocket, but for a change of pace I decided I would try something small and fun! This robot is exactly that, and in fact fits inside of an altoids tin. It is inexpensive, versatile (so many different sensors can

The FuzzBot is an awesome, fast, fully autonomous small Arduino robot that everyone loves!!! It uses the compact Pololu ZumoBot Chassis kit for a great drive system, and uses a Parallax Ping sensor to sense proximity, to make the FuzzBot fully autonomous. I like to think of it as a cheap & hackable “mini Roomba”
Starting with robotics can be hard, if you don’t know where and how to start. Best way to start is to make mobile robot. In this step-by-step we will show you, how to make cheap robot with parts available in your local store and household. Before you start you should make some plans how platform

Being able to control everything from your pocket has long been a dream shared by many. Previously we’ve had universal remotes that can both control our TVs and radios, then we had wireless wall sockets. Both great things, but how likely is it that you’re going to be carrying around those remotes with you everywhere
Did you buy an arduino after seeing all the cool instructables and now you tired of just making LEDs blink? Are you envious of all the cool walking robots people are building but don’t have the experience or cash for all of those servos and expensive brackets? Here is your solution meet BoB the 4 servo mini

Welcome to the Boss Box Bot instructable, or as we like to call it, the Bo-Bo Bot. The Bo-Bo Bot was designed to use extremely low cost materials to allow people to construct a robot without high-priced kits. Our Bo-Bo Bot will be made using various tools such as AutoCAD, Corel Draw, and a laser

Since I had a lot of ATtiny2313s lying around I wanted to do something cool with them, I thought for a while and then decided to make a simple wall avoiding robot with the ATtiny2313, an ultrasonic sensor and 2 motors. Its an easy to make and simple robot which runs on a very small

Robopod is a simple arduino robot that uses antennas to detect obstacles. Robopod’s motors are controlled by an H bridge and powered by a nine volt battery. Robopods circuit is based on a breadboard for easy modification. Step 1: Tools and Materials Material Arduino uno Breadboard H Bridge 9 volt battery 9 volt battery

First off this project was a combination of of two great online resources. I had been looking into building an eggbot for a while and since I had a lot of ping pong balls on hand after one of my other videos the time was right for making my SphereBot that could write on ping pong balls.
