S4A Robot Astronaut

Hi,everyone this is Ruthwik I am 10 years old and I made this robot using S4A(Scratch for Arduino). It took 2 weeks to complete this. I used cardboard to make this. S4A - Scratch for Arduino is a Scratch modification that brings the easiness of programming with Scratch to the Arduino prototyping board.

1. cardboard
2. castor wheel
3. Arduino board
4. LED lights
5. parallax continuous rotation servo
6. jumper wires
7. plastic sheet
8. paper
9. weight like batteries
10. thick steel wire

I used cardboard to make the body. The helmet is semicircle. I used thick steel wire to make the antenna.

I used grey paper to cover the cardboard and I added the servo motors to the legs of the character. I used the plastic sheet to make the visor.

I glued the Arduino board at the back of the robot and the LED s inside the head and did the connections.

I added the castor wheel and weight at the back of the robot.

I did all the steps to start the Arduino board using S4A. It worked but the Arduino connection wire was not long so the robot was unable to move.

Then I got a long connection wire and tested. It moved.

I added audio to my robot. Now it can talk.

Everything is working!! Now it is perfect.It is moving, talking the lights are glowing. :) :)
