Hello everyone! This is one of the B.E.A.M robots that i have build as an enthusiast. It is named quickly because it can be made quickly with simple parts and is easy to construct. The Robot is a Photovore, i.e, lightseeker and it's main component is the LM386 chip. It is a simple 8 DIP chip that can be used to drive small motor loads. It also needs a 100k variable resistor as sensitivity measure.With the variable resistor (100k) you have to adjust it's behavior. I had to turn it almost to one side. It has two LDRs ( light dependant resistors) as it's EYES and two 3v electric motors. The power source is 9v battery. You can use a 9v Nimh battery pack as well.The locomotion is achieved by the slant positions of the motors with their shaft in constant contact with a smooth surface. The rear can have a bead plugged in a wire at the back for rear support or you can leave it bare at the back because the PCB is pretty smooth. For more info on schematics please feel free to contact me at:- ahmedm1pk@hotmail.com Till then, HAPPY Roboteering!!! |
