Hi Folks,
I just thought you might? like to see my first Picaxe project. A simple buggy-bot, just 2 bump switches, 2 motors, LED indicators and sound. If I manage to upload the code and schematic you will understand it more.
On switch on, it produces a rising tone, then sits there beeping and flashing until you press one of the bump switches, then off it goes, on hitting something it reverses then turns, now and again it will spin (twirl) around a few times then its off again. Adding ultrasonics next so it don't bump in to things. The power supply runs the pic and motors, as these are small no problems yet!!
All build on Vero board, a bit of a waste as the base, don't carry much, the top board connects through pin headers and sockets, so removing its brain and up grading or adding extras, should be painless! Oh dear I can only upload 2 files max! well if anyone wants to see the schematic, will do.
Thanks for looking Cactusface
