Circuitry Testing



This is full circuitry connected to test the code. this is the full set up of our buggy before being assembled to the chassis and using variable resistors as part of the analogue input. Just for testing sake we first used two LEDs as outputs instead of the driver board and two motor set up. This helped us test the code without having fully assembled the buggy.

We have decided to stick to the breadboard for our circuitry instead of other options such as circuit boards or smaller bread boards and this will help us keep the costs low for our buggy. This therefore means we will have to model the chassis around the full bread board.

After tests the circuitry worked and therefore the next step was to connected it up to the motor board and motors and again this worked beautifully using simple code to test the connections, meaning we are ready for assembly and programming the code into the chip.
