hi there,
doing project, trying to design line following robot. i am thinking of using 5 QRD1114 optical senors attached to ATMega8L microcontroller, which is attached to L293D motor driver H-bridge to two motors,which i would just buy with double gearbox to get variable speed. was thinking of using 12v battery, could someone please give me info on power supply to use. i am not actualy building this robot, i am seeing if it is visible. i was also looking into the idea of maybe using some type of gps, in which i could attach uM-FPU V3.1 floating proccesor chip to the microcontroller and to the GPS reciever and serial LCD. would also use RS-232 convertor from gps to chip.
i would appreciate any helpful info or suggestions, i have recieved all this info from a number of different robot and internet site.
thanks for your time
