Jackies Bots

 

 

This is the beginnings of Jackies M&M bot its an LM339 photovore
Jackie got the chassis and wheels at our annual christmas gift exchange
and I gave her the motors and other parts

 

 

She does some of her own soldering

 

 

Heres everything stuffed in ready for the top

 

 

and a closeup

 

 

We still need to add the power switch and fine tune the bot, last time we
worked on it it was not responding but had been prior to that.
( the problem turned out to be the adjustment on the potentiometer)
we also got a couple of wires crossed and it became a photophobe
great for following lines
Those little camera motors create quite a bit of torque

 

 

Success, finally done and won third place at RoboMaxx III in line following
