ESP32 based omnidirectional robots w/ camera | makermoekoe

PCB robots are fun. Especially when they are omnidirectional. In this video I have built a three and a four wheeled omnidirectional PCB robot based on an ESP32-S2. It has an OV2640 camera on board which's stream can be viewed via a webserver. As I made a mistake for the four wheeled robot it is not able to drive yet, but new PCBs are already in the lab. Next robots are based on ESP32-S3 and additionally comes with other huge features! Stay tuned!

this is so incredible. i can't believe one person can do this. this is the work of like a 40 person team at hasbro

[@makermoekoe]

You made my day! Thank you 😍

[@consig1iere294]

@@makermoekoe I was going to say the same thing. How/Where does one start to know how to make/design PCB boards and stuff like that. I have many plans of doing projects like that but my electrical knowledge is limited. I would appreciate some advice.

[@nochkin]

@@consig1iere294 You need to start with simple things and move forward as you advance and learn on the way. That's how many do and improve. Start with simple breadboarding stuff and when you feel you are ready, then you can move on to something like KiCad, Altium and similar PCB design software. Many PCB design software titles have good tutorials on KZbin to get things going.

[@azoofahmed]

Dont't forget ChatGPT 😂

[@nochkin]

@@consig1iere294 Forgot to mention EasyEDA as one of the easiest PCB design apps for beginners. I really liked it when I was trying different things. It's great for more or less standard tasks.

[@nkronert]

The pico click control is so satisfying to watch in action! 😊

[@makermoekoe]

The response is better than I could imagine beforehand haha 👌🏻

[@mafiosomax7423]

How does it sense when the pico click is turning around the vertical axis? gyroscope accelerometers?

[@nkronert]

@@mafiosomax7423 I could imagine that it is also using a magnometer, but let's see what the master replies 🙂

[@mafiosomax7423]

@@nkronert Using the earth's magnetic field? If that's strong enough it would be wicked

[@nkronert]

@@mafiosomax7423 it is strong enough for compases and a magnometer is basically a solid state compass.

[@wanderer13__]

Watching you soldering this board with components is SOO satisfying!

[@rustyricotta5216]

That pico click control looked like magic. Amazing work! It would be really cool if you could tell it focus on something (either manual coords or basic image recognition) and it would handle the rotation by itself to always keep something in frame no matter where it drives around.

[@makermoekoe]

Yes, this would indeed be very cool! Should try this for the next PCB version 👌🏻

When you busted out that unique control method i thought that was the coolest thing ever. The configuration 1 seemed the best. It's like playing a Wii game in real life. This is such a good start to a great project. Insane quality. I just subscribed.

[@user-oe2fw5xp7u]

super idea. very good

[@d.sandman]

Fantastic! Just a friendly tip from a space engineering student - you don’t need to press the components into the solder paste. The molten solder will do the magic and align them perfectly during reflow. Pressing down could cause some solder paste smearing, which might lead to bridges or misalignment. Keep up!

[@YuanweiLao]
