How to create a gesture controlled minibot

This git repo is part of the Coder Girls Initiative 2018 organized by Naya in Kathmandu, Nepal.

In this project we use one sender micro:bit that sends gesture information over to another receiver micro:bit through radio. The receiver micro:bit then uses the gesture info to control dc motors and thus moving the minibot.

List of items required:

  • 2 x Micro:bits - 1 receiver and 1 sender
  • 1 x Microbit Edge Connector
  • 1 x L298N Motor Driver
  • Female/Female Jumper Wires
  • 6 x AA Batteries (or 8 if you need more speed)
  • 1 battery holder accomodating 2 AA batteries
  • 1 battery holder accomodating 4 (or 6) AA batteries
  • 2 x caster wheels
  • 2 x Motor and wheel set
  • Double Sided Tape
  • 1 x Box
  • 4 x M3x25mm screws
  • Screw Driver
