WEEK 23: DEVELOP AND CODING TESTING

OBJECTIVE

1. To develop software coding for quadruped robot.
2. To execute and test coding.

METHODOLOGY

1. Develop coding and modified existing coding found in the internet.
2. Execute the codes using Arduino IDE.
3. Troubleshoot any error in the coding.
4. Testing the coding to the hardware components.

RESULT

As a results, the existing codes obtain from 

https://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Spider-RobotQuad-robot-Quadruped/ can't be modified or added with BLYNK application coding. The figure below shows an error while the coding was execute.

ARDUINO CODE TEST USING ARDUINO IDE SOFTWARE

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION

The codes obtained from the internet can't be interfaced with the BLYNK application codes. The BLYNK application can't control the robot due to to many servo motors are use at the same time. The BLYNK application can only be interfaced if controlling one, two or more at once. Thus, for this type of project the BLYNK application is not suitable for controlling the quadruped robot. This is also due to my limitation of knowledge on using BLYNK application and arduino.

CONCLUSION

As in conclusion, I have to meet and discuss with my supervisor to inform of the problems that I faced when developing my project.
