Hardware Installation:
If you have completed Lesson 5 installation in https://osoyoo.com/2017/05/14/wifi-control-smart-car/ , please remove the 5 black/white tracking sensors, ultrasonic sensor and the servo platform. You also need add the IR receiver and the fighting gun(IR sender) onto the car. Check following connection graph:
Step 1) Install ESP8266 Expansion Board on UNO R3 board(if you installed lesson 5, skip this step and go to step 2):
Step 2) Connect IR receiver, IR LED(the fighting gun)
Note: If you want control the car through bluetooth, please install bluetooth module on ESP8266
Step 3) Turn the switch of esp8266 to “1.2” position, as following photo shows:
Step 4) Load Sample code in Robot Car DIY Lesson 1 into Arduino Uno
Note: Bluetooth module and Arduino board communicate with each other through UART serial port. Please remove bluetooth module before uploading sketch in Arduino board, otherwise the sketch will be uploaded unsuccessfully.
Step 5) If you want use wifi to control the car, turn the switch of esp8266 to “on” position(as the following picture). If you want use Bluetooth control car, put switch in “1,2” position.
Step 6) Turn on switch in the battery box. If there car can make movement as described in Lesson 1 (go forward 5 seconds, then go backward 5 seconds, then left turn for 5 seconds, then right turn for 5 seconds, then stop), it means wire connection with ESP8266 Expansion Board and R3 UNO board are all correct. Otherwise please check the each Digital Pin connection in ESP8266 Expansion Board and UNO R3.
Software Installation:
Step 1: Before upload code in esp8266, please turn the switch of esp8266 to “1.2” position, as following photo shows:
Step 2: Download Lesson 6 sample code from https://osoyoo.com/driver/fight-robot.zip , unzip the download zip file fight-robot.zip, you will see TWO folders called fight-robot-A and fight-robot-B.
If you have two cars(A and B), car A install the fighter-robot-A.ino code and car B install the fighter-robot-B.ino file
Step 3: Connect Arduino UNO in car A to PC with USB cable, Open Arduino IDE -> click file -> click Open -> choose code “fighter-robot-A.ino” in fighter-robot-A folder,, load the code into arduino.
Step 5: Connect Arduino UNO in car A to PC with USB cable, Open Arduino IDE -> click file -> click Open -> choose code “fighter-robot-A.ino” in fighter-robot-A folder,, load the code into arduino.
Step 4: Choose corresponding board/port for your project,upload the sketch to the board.
Note: Bluetooth module and Arduino board communicate with each other through UART serial port. Please remove bluetooth module before uploading sketch in Arduino board, or the sketch will be uploaded unsuccessfully.
Step 5: If you want use wifi to control the car, turn the switch of esp8266 to “on” position(as the following picture) and make sure Bluetooth module is NOT insert into wifi shield.
If you want use Bluetooth control car, put switch in “1,2” position.
Step 6: if you use iphone， please visit : https://osoyoo.com/2018/08/17/how-to-use-ios-phone-control-the-robort-car/
If you use Android phone , please download app. in Android phone from the link: https://github.com/osoyoo/driver/master/BTcar_20180607.apk.
Or scan the following QR code with Android phone to download the app.:
Note: Android APP Source code：https://github.com/osoyoo/driver/master/BTcar_20180607.apk
Step 7: install App. in your Android phone
Testing:
Step 1：Turn on switch in the battery box
Step 2：If you want to control the robot car through WIFI, please scan WiFi hotspot with your Android phone which you have installed APP and search for wifi named” DoitWIFI_Config”, Click connect(no password needed).
Step 3: Open app>> select WiFi mode>> then you can controller the robot car through wifi
Step 4: If you want to control the robot car through Bluetooth, please turn on bluetooth of your Android phone which you have installed APP and scan bluetooth(different bluetooth module will scan different bluetooth name), Click connect and enter password “1234” or “0000” if no change (You can change wifi or bluetooth settings in Android phone to switch to control car through wifi or bluetooth):
Step 5) Open app>> select bluetooth mode>> then you can controller the robot car through bluetooth:
There are three working mode: manual control, obstacle avoidance and tracking. Users can switch freely among three working mode.
1) you can click buttons (^) (V) (<) (>) to control the Robot car to move forward and backward, turn right and left. Meanwhile, the APP can observe the car real time movement.
2) To fight against enemy Robot Car, make your car facing to enemy car, Click “| |” button in middle of (<)and (>) buttons, this will shoot IR bullet to enemy. If Enemy’s car is shot by your electronic bullet(IR signal), it will lose control and stop movement. At the same time, the buzzer will alarm.
