Hi,
I am trying to make a remote control car using the following hardware
L293D drive controller motors
Arduino uno
Arduino wifi shiled
and i am using app inventor for Remote control through android application. the car and the smart phone are connected through wifi.
when i connect mysketch with arduino trhough USB, wifi shield is connected and i control my car. Its Ok.
But when i disconnect usb, i have problem
sometimes, pin 8 and 9 work .
sometines dont work nothing. there is problem with connection.
Whats wrong?
My code has any problem or I dont use the right pins?
My code:
/*
WiFi Web Server Remote control Car
*/
#include <SPI.h>
#include <WiFi.h>
char ssid[] = "conn-x9bde18"; // your network SSID (name)
char pass[] = "123456789"; // your network password
int keyIndex = 0; // your network key Index number (needed only for WEP)
int status = WL_IDLE_STATUS;
WiFiServer server(80);
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600); // initialize serial communication
pinMode(5, OUTPUT);// set the control pin mode
pinMode(6, OUTPUT); // set the control pin mode
pinMode(9, OUTPUT); // set the control pin mode
pinMode(8, OUTPUT);// set the control pin mode
pinMode(10, OUTPUT);// set the front led pin mode
pinMode(11, OUTPUT);// set the back led pin mode
// check for the presence of the shield:
if (WiFi.status() == WL_NO_SHIELD) {
Serial.println("WiFi shield not present");
while (true); // don't continue
}
String fv = WiFi.firmwareVersion();
if (fv != "1.1.0") {
Serial.println("Please upgrade the firmware");
}
// attempt to connect to Wifi network:
while (status != WL_CONNECTED) {
Serial.print("Attempting to connect to Network named: ");
Serial.println(ssid); // print the network name (SSID);
// Connect to WPA/WPA2 network. Change this line if using open or WEP network:
status = WiFi.begin(ssid, pass);
// wait 10 seconds for connection:
delay(10000);
}
server.begin(); // start the web server on port 80
printWifiStatus(); // you're connected now, so print out the status
}
void loop() {
WiFiClient client = server.available(); // listen for incoming clients
if (client) { // if you get a client,
Serial.println("new client"); // print a message out the serial port
String currentLine = ""; // make a String to hold incoming data from the client
while (client.connected()) { // loop while the client's connected
if (client.available()) { // if there's bytes to read from the client,
char c = client.read(); // read a byte, then
Serial.write(c); // print it out the serial monitor
if (c == '\n') { // if the byte is a newline character
// if the current line is blank, you got two newline characters in a row.
// that's the end of the client HTTP request, so send a response:
if (currentLine.length() == 0) {
// HTTP headers always start with a response code (e.g. HTTP/1.1 200 OK)
// and a content-type so the client knows what's coming, then a blank line:
client.println("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");
client.println("Content-type:text/html");
client.println();
// the content of the HTTP response follows the header:
client.print("Click <a href="/F">here Forward on pin 5
");
client.print("Click <a href="/B">here Backward on pin 6
");
client.print("Click <a href="/L">here turn left on pin 8
");
client.print("Click <a href="/R">here turn right on pin 9 on
");
client.print("Click <a href="/L1">here turn on front lights pin 10 on

client.print("Click <a href="/C1">here turn off front light pin 10
");
client.print("Click <a href="/L2">here turn on front lights pin 11 on
");
client.print("Click <a href="/C2">here turn off front light pin 11
");
// The HTTP response ends with another blank line:
client.println();
// break out of the while loop:
break;
} else { // if you got a newline, then clear currentLine:
currentLine = "";
}
} else if (c != '\r') { // if you got anything else but a carriage return character,
currentLine += c; // add it to the end of the currentLine
}
