What you need

• Arduino Uno
• USB Cable
• 3-6V Battery
• Motors driver (check the datasheet)
• Connectors

Steps

1. Check the battery voltage and ensure it is between 3V and 6V.
2. Connect the motor driver to the Arduino control pin.
3. Connect the gear motor to the driver terminals.
4. Load the example sketch provided to control the motor direction and speed.
5. Upload the sketch to the Arduino using the USB cable.
6. Verify that the motor rotates in the correct direction.
7. Adjust the motor speed by modifying the values in the sketch.
8. Test interaction with other sensors to complete the project.

Example code

void setup() {
  pinMode(motorPin, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  digitalWrite(motorPin, HIGH);
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(motorPin, LOW);
  delay(1000);
}

Mini project

Create a simple rover that moves forward and backward in response to commands.

Common mistakes
