i'll see if i can find the parts tomorrow cause its midnight here but just incase i can't find the necessary materials could you please suggest something that could be made using those parts on the photo earlier as those are the things that i have on hand right now, please :slightly_smiling_face:

64

Ok i will think of something and tell you.
I have uploaded some pictures here.
You should look for the Red Motor Driver if you want the robot to be two wheeled or the blue one for four wheeled. The others are motors and wheels

sure thing also thank you so much for these suggestions and possible projects that you proposed :smiling_face:, you and others have helped me a ton from reading and replying with your ideas and suggestions to even replying to my comments that weren't entirely connected to my topic even though I only recently joined the forum :grin:

Your topic is unfinished yet you doubled the volume of static. Now, when someone searches for APDS9960, they get this unsolved dialog about nothing in particular. Try to stay on topic.

67

yeah I know, even though this topic was clearly about the APDS9960 it got way off topic now and I apologize for that but I will be deleting my topic after I pass my project next week so no need to worry. Sorry for causing inconvenience to those who were searching topics related to the APDS :pensive:

If your topic has useful information about the topic, deleting it would be bad.

I see, then I will not be delete my topic then. I will try to stay on topic next time so please forgive this mistake of mine

72

Then back to topic, the previous APDS library mentioned in Post #19 that I need to install the library for the APDS 9960, do any of you know the link please send it here as I have only been able to find Adafruit Circuit Playgroup.

73

Check Post #34

75

Link to download Library from GitHub

Or as you have the older version on Arduino IDE, you can download the newer one from here,

Thanks for the links, because of this I was able to download the correct library and was able to compile the sketch now :smile:

Well then, where can I download Wire.h libraries that you mentioned alongside the Adafruit libraries in Post #19 and does it mention on the site you found the code on how to wire the buzzer and the APDS 9960 sensor together?

78

Wire.h is rolled in with the IDE these days.

80

I have followed the same steps as shown in the pictures above and it led me to a sketch and I don't know if that is where you are leading me to or was I supposed to download the encircled "Wire" folder in the last pic also how am I supposed to use the "Wire.h" sketch found in the folder I previously mentioned?

82

And Wire.h is already included in Arduino IDE. Have you tried executing the code?

83

i see, so the code is the one that should be downloaded but now that its installed what should I use it for exactly as this is just the sketch and not the library that you mentioned that was required in post #19?

84

Try and run the code on Arduino IDE

85

correct me if I am wrong but should I just upload it directly? if so I will do it now and reply if something happens or not
