My very first robot. aka STINKBOT

I just finished my very first robot today. Not having a Ping ultrasonic sensor I searched my parts box for ideas on how to avoid objects. After having realized that I couldnt avoid objects I figured the bot could run into an object, it just needed a way to eventually get around it. I reused some mouse buttons, an Adafruit motor shield and an Arduino Uno. I also used a Precision mandrel bent self suspensioning paper clip/ mouse wheel combo lol ;P I call it Stinkbot because I used the base of a Febreeze airfreshener. This little guy just drives around making my house smell great :)

This is my first attempt at writing a code that controlled more than an Led.

**A little hint to other new people to this site. When selecting my embed code from youtube I had to select options and click "use old embed code" for the link to work correctly on here.

I was thinking that I may want to add some sort of button count so that if the bot gets stuck in a particular corner and the same button keeps getting pressed that the bot would just do a full 180 and continue on.

#include <AFMotor.h>

#define LB 14
#define RB 19
int lval = 0;
int rval = 0;

AF_DCMotor motor(3, MOTOR12_64KHZ);
AF_DCMotor motor1(4, MOTOR12_64KHZ);
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);          
  Serial.println("Go Robot Go!");
 
  motor.setSpeed(200);
   motor1.setSpeed(255); 
  pinMode(LB, INPUT);
  pinMode(RB, INPUT);

}

void loop() {
  Serial.print("nomnomnom");
 
  motor.run(FORWARD);
  motor1.run(FORWARD); 
 
  {
  lval = digitalRead(LB);
  if (lval == HIGH)
  {
  Serial.print("Obstacle to the left! Reversing!");  
  motor.run(BACKWARD);
  motor1.run(BACKWARD);
  delay(500);
  motor.run(RELEASE);
  motor1.run(RELEASE);
  delay(250);
  motor1.run(BACKWARD);
  delay(750);
 
  }


  rval = digitalRead(RB);
  if (rval == HIGH) {
     Serial.print("Obstacle to the RIGHT! Reversing!");
    motor.run(BACKWARD);
  motor1.run(BACKWARD);  //
  delay(500);
  motor.run(RELEASE);
  motor1.run(RELEASE);
  delay(250);
  motor.run(BACKWARD);
  delay(750);
  }
}
