Brainstorming

My original idea was to make a rover that would be sent to unknown areas and take temperature and humidity readings, plus has a carbon monoxide detector. My pi would be connected to a screen that displays the information received. The idea was to use the Elegoo v4.0 smart robot kit as sort of a base for the following additions. 

Actually, I was at first thinking of making a bird encyclopedia website but that never worked out.

The original component list: 

  • 4 dc motors
  • 4 wheels
  • 2 plastic scraps
  • a wood platform
  • arduino uno 
  • raspberry pi 4 model b+
  • 5 inch display screen (part of the freenove kit)
  • servo motor
  • arduino uno extension hat (called the robot car shield)
  • ultrasonic sensor 
  • camera module
  • plastic stand
  • IR remote
  • various hardware pieces
  • battery 
  • battery pack
  • USB C to outlet cord
  • line tracker module
  • black tape
  • breadboard
  • gpio extension board
  • gpio wire connection 
  • jumper wires
  • brass standoffs
  • carbon monoxide detector module
