Rugged elevation four legged robot using Arduino

Published on 18 Apr 2022. Written by Prakhar srivastava

Espionage robots are not best suited for surveillance on rugged terrain because of its wheeled systems. Due to the inability to operate on rugged terrain, robotics and drones get jammed.

Here the model presents a rugged terrain beetle robot that can quickly move across jungles, hilly and rocky areas with minimal effort. Its compact size helps it to travel across rugged terrain like a little animal with little noise moving through the forest. To perform this function the robot uses a crawling method.

Project Implementation:

The machine uses a circuit based on a microcontroller to control the motors and attain the required motion. The robotic vehicle uses advanced climbers on hilly terrain to ascend and descent. The climbers often require it to crawl through bushes and grass with ease. This also helps the device to cross rough trails and obstacles. The robot is operated remotely via an application using a Smartphone. This enables the user to remotely manage the robot's lateral motion, velocity, and strength. The application is connected to the internet/Wi-Fi server to transmit the commands to the robot remotely. The machine electrical system consists of a microcontroller circuit which receives user commands and afterwards instructs motors to achieve a particular movement via driver IC. So here the project put forward Arduino related rugged Elevation four legs Robot. Following are the components required to build the gadget:

Motor Driver IC: It is an electronic circuit chip commonly used in automated systems to drive motors.

Arduino Uno: This is a conveniently accessible alternative microcontroller board developed by Arduino.cc and focused primarily on the microcontroller chip ATmega328P. The board is equipped with a series of analog and digital input/output (I / O) connectors, usable for production and other circuits with various boards.

IoT Gecko: In an IoT-based system for the encoding of sensor values, operation of motor systems and movement control. This is a free IoT technology development tool for students, researchers, and developers. Create a path to internet-controlled physical tools, with support and services for the easy creation of IoT-based gadgets.

LCD Display: That is a flat panel display where liquid crystals are used in their main operating phase.

ESP8266 Wi-Fi module: It is a self-contained system-on-chip (SoC) with an embedded TCP / IP routing protocol that will provide the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n) network connectivity to any microcontroller. It also comprises general-purpose input/output 16 GPIO pins with inter-integrated cable, Analog-to-Digital (10-bit ADC), DMA (GPIO), UART (GPIO2), and Pulse-width (PWM) modulation.

Adapter: The supply voltage was reduced from 120V to 12V, which is optimal for an antenna or other small electronic devices. The incoming rapid electrical boost will destroy the device's internal portions entirely, which is why an adapter is required to regulate voltage surge.

Several other small components to build the system are:

Diodes
9V Battery
DC Motor
Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)
Robot legs (Curve S-shape hard metal strip)
Robotic Chassis
Voltage Regulator IC
Push Buttons
Resistors
Capacitors
Transistors
Cables and Connectors
PCB and Breadboards
Software: Arduino Compiler
MC Programming Language: C

Install all electronic components, do the zero settings. Thus the project develops a fully automatic Arduino based rugged elevation climber four legs Robot.
