Beta Project

Introducing Beta, a robot controlled by Arduino and L298N with Bluetooth connectivity as seen in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrFWBjptyvQ&feature=g-upl. Equipped with 8 servos - four for leg movement and four for wheel control, along with four motors. The robot is powered by four LiPos connected in series, regulated by three 7805 voltage regulators. Note that the servos used for wheels are non-continuous rotation models, making control difficult. The more powerful leg servos are recommended. The geared motors used can be found here: http://dx.com/p/high-torque-80rpm-12v-dc-geared-motor-91628?item=6. Bluetooth module: http://dx.com/p/bluetooth-board-module-4-pin-121326?item=2, L298N for controlling DC motors: http://dx.com/p/l298n-stepper-motor-driver-controller-board-for-arduino-120542?item=4. The Arduino code is in the file "Codigo.ino". Apologies for the lack of documentation, which will be improved in the next version, Gamma Project. Assemble the robot using four wheels, four bodies, four legs, and two bases with love and a touch of cyanoacrylate (super glue). Remember, the code annotations are in Spanish but should be understandable. It's still a work in progress.
