Free Touchscreen in cheap car back-up monitor for Raspberry Pi
I have a great find to share with everyone, I found a resistive touchscreen sensor embeded in a cheap car back-up monitor that i was using for the Raspberry Pi.
As you can see, I have removed the stand/leg thing because it was standing in my way. I bought this from BestBuy because I wanted it then and didn't want to wait for a week for one to ship from eBay (I overpaid by double I think).

Arduino autonomous tracked robot build Part 3
So I finally got to this step, my bodged together piece of code that makes my robot move. This is the last one in the series.
I uploaded the code to SourceForge so anyone can take it and do whatever they want with it and maybe in the process someone will learn something. Here it is.

I will start with the easy bits, the small functions and the bits that hold everything together.

Arduino autonomous tracked robot (visual post)
This is a post with the video of my robot in action along with all the photos I have of it. Enjoy!
And the photo gallery below. (and links to the build).

On to the actual construction of the tank.
Basically it is made from Tamiya kits, the tracks and gearbox one kit and the platform and diverse small parts in another. I bought them from a local hobby shop and that cost me a lot more than expected but that is my problem. It should be fairly cheap if you source the parts from the source and not third party vendors like I did.

Arduino autonomous tracked robot build Part 1
So I am finally taking time to write about this one. I created the monster some time ago but I haven't have the chance to talk about it. This is a simple (yet it took me a bloody long time to complete) Arduino Uno, motor shield, Ping sensor, infrared sensor, autonomous robot.
So there it is, that picture explains everything, my job is done here :)
