CIRC-04 Assignment 2

Purpose
     The purpose of this assignment is to apply the connection between the potentiometer & servo to control a robot. 


Equipment 
If the robot is being connected to Arduino Uno, the following parts are needed besides the robot:

  • Arduino Uno
  • 6 x Potentiometers
  • Breadboard
  • 26(approx) x Wires
Assembly

     Assembling this circuit doesn't follow the usual principle as it uses external equipment. However attaching the arduino related pieces can take up to 12 minutes. 

Program Details

     The following program uses the same functions as the prior assignment to control a robot with six potentiometers associated with six servos at the various turning points on the robot. Below is a diagram of the robot in initial position.

The following program accompanies this assignment:
