Improved version of Sunfounder's Quadruped Crawling Robot.
After building the Crawling Robot I have made a few upgrades:
The robot can now be controlled via Bluetooth. In order for this to work properly it was necessary to use a small Power Distribution Board.
You can now use the Android App available from this repo to control the robot. Don't forget to change the MAC address used in the app to the address of your bluetooth module.
You can also control the robot from your Computer using Bluetooth. Simply run the python script. Don't forget to change the MAC address used in the script to the address of your bluetooth module. You will need to install the following dependencies:
pip install pybluez
pip install pynput
Making use of one of the many inexpensive ultrasound sensors a free roam/object avoidance mode was implemented.
