Make an Arduino-Controlled Robot Michael Margolis

Because every robot needs flashing lights have LEDs that flash and have no real purpose. The RK-1 is a fun mobile robot that uses an ad-hoc wifi connection (or your local router, if you like), which is controlled using your iOS or Android device. Designed to make microcontrollers - tiny computers capable of real-time input-output operations often used to drive robots or read sensor data - accessible to non-programmers, Arduino was founded in 2005 by Massimo Banzi and an Arduino Leonardo can do, the Yún includes integrated Wi-Fi connectivity - something that previous Arduinos have lacked, requiring expensive add-on boards known as 'shields' to obtain - for both programming and direct control. Debuting last weekend at San Francisco's Maker Faire, the Arduino Robot is officially the first equipped with wheels for locomotion. As well as being remote controlled by a phone, also has a mode that will search out light. The tricky part is to be able to make the motor selectively run forward or backwards, which requires swapping power and ground inputs into the motor.

The Arduino board cannot directly control a motor. I love building and programming mobile robots and because of my love of mobile robots, mobile phones/tablets and the Arduino, we combined them to make a prototype called the “RK-1″.
