Arduino robot questions

raschemmel:
Well if you read the posts on this forum every day you would see hundreds of post that start with the phrase "I'm building an Arduino Robot ........"

So I suppose you could see say this falls into the category of " the boy who cried wolf..."

Not really, as I am not the one who has asked all the questions on other robots. But I could have been more clear about the difference between an arduino robot in general, and the Arduino Robot.

Still interested in any info on my questions. Don't have any photos available though.

  1. It is a circular paper cutout, which is supposed to isolate the circuit board from the floor. Rather sceptical about how long it will survive though. And I need to disassembly the robot in order to attached it.

  2. The caster is branded by Arduino, so probably of their own design. There are metal inserts for the bolts, so it is not simple to cut it down in size. The idea of increasing the radius of the wheels might work, there is lots of clearance available. (Some of the pictures of the robot on the web have different wheels - maybe they have switched to a smaller one in the production run?)

  3. It is the square holes visible in the photo on Arduino Robot : ID 1499 : Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DIY electronics and kits .

  4. The table in question is on the web, "Control Board Pin Mapping". http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Robot
