Robotics Training LESSON 13: Program Speed of the Elegoo Smart Car with Infrared (IR) Remote

In this lesson we show you how to program the speed of the Elegoo Smart Car version 3 using the infrared (IR) remote control. We show how this is similar to inputing desired distance, taught in Lesson 12. If you want to play along at home, you can pick up your gear HERE. For your convenience, we include the code developed in the video below.

 

Robotics Training LESSON 11: Controlling the Elegoo Smart Car With IR Remote

In this lesson we show how you can control a robot with an IR remote. We program the Elegoo Smart Car version 3.0 to respond to  commands to the remote to go forward, backward, left and right.

 

Robotics Training LESSON 9: Calibrate Robot Car Turn Angles with Linear Regression

Guys in this lesson we show how you can use linear regression to more accurately calibrate turns for our robot car. We will take you through the math step-by-step, and then show how to code up the results. If you want to play along at home, you can get your Elegoo Robot Car HERE.

For your convenience, the code we developed in the lesson is included below.

 

Robotics Training LESSON 8: Setting Speed of the Smart Car

In this lesson we show how to program the speed of the Elegoo Smart Car Version 3.0 using the Infrared (IR) remote control. We take you through the process of using the remote step-by-step, and for your convenience we include the code below. If you want to play along at home, you can pick up your gear HERE.

 

Robotics Training LESSON 6: Controlling DC Motor Speed with the L298N

In this video lesson we see how the speed of the Robot Car can be changed by doing analogWrite commands to the Enable pins on the L298N DC motor controllers. The code below presents the results we developed in the video.
