My First Robot

Here is my first robotic project. I haven’t been working on robotics for a long time, but now I know that it’s a lot of fun! I really enjoyed doing my first “creation”. It’s an easy robot, the long part was all the soldering required, and I wasn’t used to it.

The robot itself hasn’t a name…because it is just a test, to be the first time. I have already started other projects, but this is the only one with the complete documentation.

This little robot just drive around avoiding objects and making my cat go crazy. It’s powered with 4.5V, and use the infrared sensor as a distance sensor. I didn’t have a PICAXE project board so I made one myself(actually, 2, one for the PICAXE 28X1 and the other for the L293D Motor Driver), see the pictures.

It's nothing special, but I'm Proud of it! And i wanted to share my happiness
