Spark V Robot
Description
Spark V robot is based on ATMEGA16A microcontroller. Robot
comes with rechargeable 7.2V 600mA NiMH Battery and onboard intelligent battery charger.
It has 3 analog white line sensors, 3 analog IR Proximity sensors, 3 directional light
intensity sensors, battery voltage sensing, TSOP1738 IR receiver for TV remote control
and Position encoders. Robot has support for 3 MaxBotix EZ series ultrasonic range
sensors. It also has support for the servo mounted sensor pod which can be used to make
180 degrees scan for the map making.
Robot is powered by 6 cell 7.2V 600mA rechargeable NiMH
batteries which gives about 30 minutes battery operation. Robot has built-in Smart
Battery Controller which charges the battery in intelligent way and also monitors the
battery charge level when robot is in operation. Robot has 2x16 alphanumeric LCD, Lots
of LED indicators for quick debugging, Buzzer etc. Motors are controlled by L293D motor
driver. Robot gives top speed of 15cm to 20cm per second depending on the model.
Robot has USB interface for PC connectivity. Robot has
onboard socket for XBee wireless module for multi robot and robot to PC communication.
You can also control this robot over GUI from NEX Robotics over wired (USB) and wireless
(XBee wireless modules) medium. Firmware (.hex file) is loaded on the robot using
Bootloader Utility from NEX Robotics. There is no need to use external programmer. There
are additional empty soldering points at each pin of the microcontroller so that you can
access them for customization of the robot.
