Cycloboat is a recycled boat robot that uses plastic bottles to float on water.
It can detect objects and avoid it using ultrasonic.
I will be posting more videos with some more description later.
1. Right Angle Gear Motor: voltage is 4.5-6V with a no load current of 190mA, output shaft is 9mm long and the gearbox ratio is 48:1 with a wheel speed of 140 RPM (unloaded)
2. Dual Ball Bearing Hub
3. Arduino Uno as a brain and control system of Cycloboat
4. L298N Motor Drive Controller Board Module Dual H Bridge.
5. Ultrasonic Module
6. Batteries 4 x 1.5v each total of 6v dc
7. Fan recycled from old fan
8. Sealed wood box.
9. Aluminum Pole and mounting channels hub.
10. Recycled plastic bottles X 3.
