Rover5 BOM
- Pololu Dagu Rover 5 - The Rover Demonstration Case Studies are constructed around the Dagu Electronics Rover5 two-wheel-drive tracked robot chassis. The chassis is also available in a four-wheel drive version, but the two-wheel drive is sufficient for this project, is less expensive, and requires the usage of fewer i/os to control the motors.
BOM:
- 1 Rover 5 Robot chassis
- 1 Raspberry PI 3
- 1 16Go Micro SD-Card
- 1 Pololu RPi hat motor controller #2756
- 1 connector to be soldered on the #2756 controler
- 1 LED (SeedStudio Grove system)
- 1 Pi Camera
- 4 Infra Red sensors Sharp 0A41SK
- 2 Ultra Sonic sensors HR-SR04
- 1 Digital compass
- 1 MCP 3008 Analog/Digital Converter or MCP 32008 Analog/Digital Converter
- 1 Bread board (170 points is enough)
3D printed parts: TBC
Not on the image:
- Wires
- Battery with 2 USB ports
- 1 USB cable (for the RPi3)
- 1 USB cable modified to power the motor controller
Potential extra parts:
- Pololu extension plates
- accelerometer
- gyroscope
