??Features:
Easy to start - The Shieldbot is plug and play and can be running out of the box in minutes.
Expandable for imagination - solderless grove expansion ports enable easy attachment of more sensors and actuators£¬ and shield headers allow the use of additional Arduino shields.
Open source - Its designed to be hacked£¬ adapted and transformed into whatever you want it to be!
Arduino Based - the Shieldbot is an Arduino shield£¬ so the extensive Arduino community and shield ecosystem can be used for endless expansion!
Specifications:
5 IR reflectance sensors for line and edge following
Two durable 160:1 micro metal gearmotors
6 Grove expansion ports
Stackable shield headers
Working voltage: 7.4V battery or 11V-15VDC
Working current: £¼1.5A
Li-ion rechargeable battery: 900mAh£¬ 7.2V
Max. speed of motor: 160RPM
Max. torque of motor: 1Kgf.cm
Interface Function:
Power Switch: When ShieldBot is off£¬ The shield bot can not run. But you can use the USB Charge Port to charge for battery.
USB Charge Port: USB mini-B£¬ used for charging for battery.
Grove Ports: Grove ports access pins D0£¬ D1£¬ D2£¬ D3£¬ D4£¬ D5£¬ A4£¬ A5. Can connect Grove modules to these Grove ports.
IR Line Finder Potentiometer: Used for adjusting the Line Finders Sensitivity. Clockwise adjustment£¬ the Sensitivity increases; Counterclockwise adjustment£¬ the Sensitivity decreases.
IR Line Finders: S1 to S5. Blue if non reflective surface is detected (ex Black tape line)
Enable Switch: Turn switch towards "ON" to connect line finders to I/O pins(Occupied pins are A0£¬ A1£¬ A2£¬ A3£¬ D4) of Arduino. The LineFollowingSimple demo in library is used line finders output signal to control Shield Bot run. If switch is toward "OFF"£¬ Seeeduino/Arduino cannot control Shield Bot through line finders output signal.
Arduino Shield Expansion Headers: Shield Bot can truly stack other shields.
Note: 1. If S5 is enabled you can't use grove ports j14 and j13.
2. You may only use ONE of the arduino's serial line£¬ uart grove port or j11 as they all share the D1/TX line.
