Videotuvastusrobot on robot mis peab leidma üles punast pallit ja sõita tema järgi.

• Peame kasutama kamerat CMUcam3
• Maksimaalsed gabariidid: 20 cm x 20 cm x 20 cm
• Täisautonoomne

Roboti komponendid on paigutatud alusraamile, mis on valmistatud 3 mm paksusest alumiiniumist. Servo mootorid ja kaamera on kinnitatud metallnurkadega. Meie robot seisab 2 ratastel. Lisaks on väike toetusrullik. Niisugune skeem annab võimalust pööratada ühe mootori pöörlemisega ja teise pidurdamisega. Ratad on ühendatud mootoriga. Patareihoidikud on ühendatud kruvide ja mutritega.

• Servohack(how its made?)

As for the details, there are actually only two modifications to make to the servo. Replace the position sensing potentiometer with an equivalent resistor network Remove the mechanical stop from the output shaft

Here are the steps. You will need a few supplies

1. small philips screwdriver for opening the case
2. a soldering iron
3. a desoldering pump or solder wick for removing the potentiometer
4. a sharp knife or wire cutters for removing the mechanical stop
5. Two 2.2k resistors (actually, anything between 2.2k and 3.3k will work, as long as they are equal values)

The following steps will help you make the modifications. Open the case by removing the 4 screws located at the bottom of the servo. The bottom plate should come off easily. Remove the top of the case. You will find a set of gears under the top case, a several blobs of white grease. Try hard to save the grease by leaving it on the gears.

Be careful to note how the gears are arranged, and remove them from the top of the servo. I usually place them as the are supposed to sit. The large fine tooth gear in the middle does not need to be removed. See the picture below.

Servo with top and gears removed Locate and remove the two small philips head screws on the left shaft in the picture above. These screws go through the top case and into the drive motor. Next, you need to remove the circuit board from the case. To do this, you will probably need to press down hard on the brass shaft on the right side. This is the top of the position potentiometer. I find that pressing that brass shaft against the edge of the workbench helps push it through. From the bottom, very carefully pry up on opposing corners of the circuit board. The board should slide out with the motor and potentiometer attached. You should end up with the following parts on the table.

Disassembled servo motor. Now for the actual modifications. You will need to desolder the potentiometer from the board. I usually cut the long leads off a quarter inch or so from the bottom. I then use solder wick on the back side of the board. Once the pot has been removed, you need to wire in the resistor network in its place. To do this, place the resistors side by side and twist one pair of leads. Solder them together, but leave one of the leads long enough to make a 3 wire part. Then replace the pot with this 3 wire pot. As seen in the picture below, the pot has been replaced by the resistor network.

An unmodified (left) and modified circuit board. Now, reassemble the circuit board into the case. Note that the pot is now missing, so only the motor will protrude through the top of the case. Before reinstalling the gears, you will need to modify the gear with the output shaft so the mechanical stop is removed. The mechanical stop is a small tab of plastic on the lower gear surface. In the picture below, you can see the tab on the left gear. This should be cut down flush with the surface. Try to get all of the tab removed, as is shown with the gear on the right side. An unmodified (left) and modified output shaft gear Replace the gears as they were when you took the motor apart, replace the top of the case, the bottom plate, and the two screws.

Your done!

Esiplaan oli kasutada kontrollerit, driverit, alalisvoolumootorit. Aga mugav kaamerakonstruktsioon annab võimalust ehitada robotit ainult kahe ümberehitatutega servomootoridega.

Roboti juhtimine toimub kaamera abil.
