Arduino + Robotis

Playing with 

Arduino + Robotis Parts

Sebarang pertanyaan/pembelian/bantuan boleh dm saya dia twitter eh:

i recommend watch this video on youtube for better quality:

       Security Gates

In this post i just use serial monitor and keyboard.

This is really simple tutorial. Its take around 30minutes.
In this tutorial, i use:
 -Arduino Mega 2560                                
 -Robotis Play600 parts.
 -Motor Driver L293D
 -Red and Green LED.
 -Breadboard
 -Jumper Cables


Actually Robotis Play600 Pets looks so boring, then i just wanna make it become more interesting by using Arduino. I think this robotis play600 cheaper than other robotis model. I dont know how much because i got this for free. I got this during lucky draw Fira Roboworld Cup. I'm so lucky.  So i make this during my weekend......








1. Open the body and solder two female jumper cables at the battery casing.

     Like this!

    -Unscrew the screw and open this part





               -Solder the jumper cables to DC motor cables(at battery casing). I do this because i want to
                drive the DC motor inside using a motor driver.
                Maybe this image can help you to understand what i mean :)












After finish, assemble and screw them up!


2. Wiring between Arduino, Motor Driver, and Robotis

Connect the wiring like this.
In my video i use only 5V power supply to power up the motor. I'm not using any battery, i use from Arduino 5V pin.
Make sure your circuit is correct.

Dont forget to include the Green and Red LED in the circuit!






3. Assemble your Robotis Parts

  
 -Assemble them as creative as creative can.

                                                                      this is mine.




4. Arduino Code

Once you've finished, now you ready to upload the code!
This is my code. You can copy and paste or directly download here .



String password_input;
String pass = "zaki";
int gateup = 7;
int gatedown = 8;
int stopp = 9;
int go = 10;

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);     //baud rate
  pinMode(gateup, OUTPUT);     //pin for gate up
  pinMode(gatedown, OUTPUT);   //pin for gate going down
  pinMode(stopp, OUTPUT);      //red led pin
  pinMode(go, OUTPUT);         //green led
  Serial.println("Enter Password");
}
void loop()
{
  digitalWrite(stopp, HIGH);
  if (Serial.available() > 0)
  {
    password_input = Serial.readString();  //password key in by user
    if (password_input == pass)            //if password is correct
    {
      digitalWrite(stopp, LOW);           //red led OFF
      delay(500);
      digitalWrite(go, HIGH);             //green led is high
      Serial.print("Password Received: "); //print on serial monitor
      Serial.println(password_input);
      delay(500);
      analogWrite(gateup, 180);           //open the gate
      Serial.println("Gate Open");
      delay(2500);
      digitalWrite(gateup, LOW);         //gate open for 2 seconds
      Serial.println("delay 2 seconds......");
      delay(1500);
      digitalWrite(go, LOW);  //green led OFF
      delay(500);
      digitalWrite(stopp, HIGH);  //red led high
      delay(500);
      Serial.println("Gate Closed!");
      analogWrite(gatedown, 150);     //close the gate until get the correct password
      delay(650);
      digitalWrite(gatedown, LOW);
      delay(500);
      Serial.println("Please Enter Password"); //ask user to key in the password again
    }
    else 
    {
      Serial.print("Password Received: ");     //if the password is invalid
      Serial.println(password_input);
      Serial.println("Invalid Password!");
      Serial.println("Please enter the password again");
    }
  }
}




Code Explaination


String password_input;
-this string use for storing the password that user key in

String pass = "zaki";
-this string is the password. User need to key in "zaki" at serial monitor to open the gate.
-you can change the password with modify this string like this:
String pass = "the password you want";
example:
String pass = "vnsicxx34kjx";

int gateup = 7;
-pin on arduino that i use to open the gate.

int gatedown = 8;
-pin on arduino that i use to close the gate.

int stopp = 9;
-pin on arduino that i use to Red LED.

int go = 10;
-pin on arduino that i use to Green LED.

Serial.begin(9600);    
-baud rate

pinMode(gateup, OUTPUT);
-Set pin gateup as output

pinMode(gatedown, OUTPUT);
-Set pin gatedown as output

pinMode(stopp, OUTPUT);
-set red led pin as output

pinMode(go, OUTPUT);
-set green led pin as output

Serial.println("Enter Password");
-ask user to enter the password on serial monitor

digitalWrite(stopp, HIGH);
-Red LED always ON because gate always close

if (Serial.available() > 0)
-If serial communication with Arduino is available(check), all code ready to execute. If not, code
  never to execute

password_input = Serial.readString();
-read the password that key in by user in string

if (password_input == pass)
{
      digitalWrite(stopp, LOW);           //red led OFF
      delay(500);
      digitalWrite(go, HIGH);             //green led is high
      Serial.print("Password Received: "); //print on serial monitor
      Serial.println(password_input);
      delay(500);
      analogWrite(gateup, 180);           //open the gate
      Serial.println("Gate Open");
      delay(2500);
      digitalWrite(gateup, LOW);         //gate open for 2 seconds
      Serial.println("delay 2 seconds......");
      delay(1500);
      digitalWrite(go, LOW);  //green led OFF
      delay(500);
      digitalWrite(stopp, HIGH);  //red led high
      delay(500);
      Serial.println("Gate Closed!");
      analogWrite(gatedown, 150);     //close the gate until get the correct password
      delay(650);
      digitalWrite(gatedown, LOW);
      delay(500);
      Serial.println("Please Enter Password"); //ask user to key in the password again
    }

-All of this code will be execute if the user enter the correct password




else 
    {
      Serial.print("Password Received: ");     //if the password is invalid
      Serial.println(password_input);
      Serial.println("Invalid Password!");
      Serial.println("Please enter the password again");
    }

-this code will be executed if user enter the incorrect password
-print "Invalid Password" and "Please enter the password again"
