Arduino ESP32 CAM Robot

 In this tutorial I am going to show you how to make an ESP32 CAM Robot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 ESP32 CAM Robot parts:

Black Gladiator - Tracked Chassis

If you are gonna build a robotics project, then you need to check out this guy, Black Gladiator. He is an agile tracked robot chassis, low noise, and easy to control, which could be a good partner for your any tank-liked robots. This tracked chassis employs high-strength aluminium alloy base with delicate appearance, higher stability and longer durability

 

 The track is made of engineering plastic that basically assured the good elasticity, excellent damping effect and large road grip of the product. What’ s more, it comes with two quality motors to provide high power and speed, which enables your DIY robot car to widely suit all kinds of road surfaces

 

 

 

 

 

ESP32-CAM Development Board WiFi+Bluetooth Module with OV2640 Camera

 

 

ESP32-CAM has a very competitive small-size camera module in the industry. It can work independently as the smallest system, with a size of only 27*40.5*4.5mm, and a deep sleep current as low as 6mA.
ESP-32CAM can be widely used in various IoT applications, home smart devices, industrial wireless control, wireless monitoring, QR wireless identification, wireless positioning system signals and other IoT applications.

Motor Driver TB6612FNG H-Bridge controller

 

 The TB6612FNG (308k pdf) is a great dual motor driver that is perfect for interfacing two small DC motors such as our micro metal gearmotors to a microcontroller, and it can also be used to control a single bipolar stepper motor. The MOSFET-based H-bridges are much more efficient than the BJT-based H-bridges used in older drivers such as the L298N and Sanyo’s LB1836M, which allows more current to be delivered to the motors and less to be drawn from the logic supply (the LB1836 still has the TB6612 beat for really low-voltage applications).
