2-Wheel Self Balancing Robot by Using Arduino and MPU6050: Food Living Outside Play Technology Workshop

This document describes how to build a 2-wheel self-balancing robot using an Arduino, motor driver, MPU6050 sensor, motors, and batteries. It provides instructions on assembling the frame with acrylic boards and fasteners. Encoder motors and wheels are installed on brackets attached to the frame. Finally, the electronic components like the Arduino, motor driver, sensor and batteries are mounted on the robot. Code and calibration are needed to operate the robot and enable it to balance itself on two wheels.

2-Wheel Self Balancing Robot by using Arduino and MPU6050.

Use Arduino as the controller and sensor MPU6050 to control the balance. Just add a simple Serial Bluetooth module and use a Bluetooth Serial Controller APP for
Android Phone to make the remote control.

In the first version, the controller is Arduino UNO, then in the sencond version as the following video shows, just change it to Arduino Lenardo.

Now let's see how to make this robot step by step.

Step 1: Materials
Mechanical Parts:
3 × Acrylic Board
16 × Brass Stud M4x16
2 × Encoder Motor
2 × Motor Brakcets
2 × Shaft Coupling
2 × Wheel
Screw M3
Nut M3

Electronic Modules:
1 × Arduino UNO (Arduino Leonardo in the second version)
1 × Motor Driver L298N
1 × DC/DC Power Converter LM2596
1 × MPU6050
2 × 18650 2600mAh 3.7V Li-ion Rechargeable Battery
1 × Battery Holder

Step 3: Install Motor Brackets
Install 2 Motor Brackets on the frame.

Step 4: Install Encoder Motors and Wheels

First, install 2 encoder motors on the motor brackets.
Then add 2 wheels on the motors.
