Quantity | Component name | |
1 | × | Arduino Nano R3 Develoment board & microcontroller that can be plugged into breadboard; this runs the control script that balances the robot. |
2 | × | NEMA 17 Stepper Motor Bipolar stepper motor and has a 1.8° step angle (200 steps/revolution). Each of the robot wheels will be powered independently by these motors. |
2 | × | A4988 Stepper Motor Driver (in breakout-board) The drivers used to control the stepper motors; one per motor. |
1 | × | MPU-6050 6 Axis Gyro + Accelerometer (in breakout-board) The robot's sensor that is used to report the tilt angle. |
1 | × | HC-06 Bluetooth Serial Pass-through Module Used to communicate with Android smartphone. |
1 | × | 2200mAh 11.4V LiPo Battery The robot's power source. |
1 | × | 600x300x5mm Acrylic Sheet The robot chassis is laser cut from this material. |
1 | × | Breadboard (63 Row) Prototyping breadboard to be used with jumper wires; a larger board is more forgiving when building the circuit. |
1 | × | Set of Jumper wires Typical set jumper wires; different lengths required, different colours is helpful. |
