Learn to program an Arduino-controlled SMARS robot with an HC-SR07 range finder sensor in this 54-minute video tutorial. Connect the range finder to the Arduino, measure object distances, and implement obstacle avoidance for your robot. Explore the basics of SMARS robots, low-cost, open-source, 3D-printable devices ideal for beginners in electronics and programming. Access additional resources, including show notes, GitHub code repository, and presentation slides. Dive into topics such as pin configuration, variables, trigger and echo signals, setup code, loop frequency, distance calculation, and serial monitoring. Troubleshoot common issues and create avoidance algorithms using Python. Test and initialize your code to bring your SMARS robot to life with sensor-based navigation.
