Farrusco is a small robot based on the Arduino platform, in this case, is using a Motoruino wich is inspired on the Arduino but with a couple of enhancements – dc motor dual controller, servo and sensor plugs. With Farrusco you will be able to make it avoid obstacles, follow walls, enter in free space [...]
The motoruino is so easy to setup, just plug the motors, sensors, upload code and your bot is ready to go. I added a big capacitor (4700uF) on the PCB power connections as I had the Motoruino resetting randomly when a motor started (OddBot explains everything here) This is a quick test drive with the [...]
