Cleaner robot v.2.0.(terminaded)
This robot is developt to prove that anyone can build a robot for anything with a little work and a lot of thinking.


The robot has only a bumpersensor mounted on this pictures
The robot is still not complete.I need to instal the volage sensor and the 2 IR sensors, the LDR and the contact sensor for the docking station algo.

The docking logic and idea i got from this site.

I am going to put some pictures on my project locator for the recognision of the docking station soon.
But at the moment I am bussy with school.
UPDATE 16/05/09

This is the piece of my robot that is needed to find the docking station.
It is with 2 LDR sensor instead of IR sensor because IR sensors didn't had enough range.
The sensors serch a light which is on the same level of the piece.
The black tape is added so that rays of light from an other heit don't mess the sensor readings up.

Here you see one of the two LDR sensors.

Front view. I now it's a but messy, but I'm a student so I don't work that tidy.

Better picture of my robot. The dockingstationsensor piece is yet to be attached.
Thats all for today.
If you got any tips, please say them.
UPDATE 27/06/09
I just finished my exams and I stopped with the cleaner robot project.
I always look for a challenge and I'm a bit bored of this project.
So I am ending the project now.
I'm going to place a walkthroug of my object avoiding sharp IR scanning servo robot on LMR next week.
This is going to be on the same platteform of the cleaner robot.
Thanks

Sounds good.
Can you post video of it in action and some pictures in daylight?
How does it clean the floor?

It is going to clean with a brush on the end.
But for now its with a cloth of some electrical tap that take the dirt with it.
