This, the fifth book in the Arduino Short Reads Series, takes a different tack compared to the others as it much more project focused. This book takes the reader through every detail in the construction of an Arduino based autonomous vehicle. It provides a structured approach and goes into detail for every step from sourcing a chassis, understanding the drive system, programming the vehicle to follow lines and avoid objects. The book shows you how to use the freely available Processing IDE to develop an app to control the rover via Bluetooth. All using low cost and readily available components. There is a lot of compelling and informative content for the novice engineer or the hobbyist looking to have fun in STEM education, microelectronics, and coding.
Motor Control Electronics:
Space is at a premium on any chassis. Therefore, I chose to make use of Arduino shields to stack the main electronics elements and contain them within the footprint of the Arduino board. A shield is simply a functional electronic module that is built to match the form factor of the Arduino board and has header pins soldered to the underside such that it can be inserted into the headers of the Arduino. I will be using the Arduino motor shield and we will cover this in detail in Chapter 2. It contains the H-Bridge needed to control the speed and direction of our motors.
