Timerbot project 2012-09-06

This document presents several 555 timer circuits and there usage for a robotic obstacle avoidance system.

There are no 555 circuits presented here that are novel nor original, what makes this design unique is in its usage of basic 555 timer building blocks. The Timerbot is designed that it will continually move forward until an obstacle is in its path at which time the Timerbot will switch the right wheel off and the left wheel will run in reverse for a predetermined time and again detect...
