MicroRobots

IMG 3112.jpg

Making a micro robot out of the stuff which i never thought can be used other than their primary purpose. Using a button cell(3V) , conducting wires and a small motor i created a robot which moves in a circle. It was really interesting to work on this micro robot as i have never worked earlier on such kind of stuff. I have never thought that such routine objects can be used to make a micro robot. It developed my interest in the electronics study and it made me open my old physics text books. I was a really cool project to work on.


Trip to SP Road

Reaching the SP road was a challenge as i was going there for the very first time so figuring out the bus route and locate the shop was quite a challenge. I was really excited as we got a huge list of electronic components which we had to buy from the shop known as Vishal Electronics. I was amazed to see the amount of shops all related to components and hardware. It was busy market and moment we reached the shop, I could see the surging crowd at the counter and to get in was a bit tough but i got in. Bought my stuff and looking at all these small components developed my interest a lot now in the electronics as all they were very fascinating. The market was bright as there were a lot of light shops selling some different kinds of lights. What got me so stuck was the colours of the conducting wires, they were so vibrant and were outshining in the market. Overall it was a great experience and really loved the place as it got its own scent.


Intro to Components

Battery

Mini Project: Making your own battery

Making battery out of lemons was a good experience. We all have learned in the school that citric acid can conduct electricity, so using that point making a lemon battery was a fun task. I bought few lemons, copper wires an zinc nails for making this lemon battery. After inserting nails into the lemon and i connected them using copper wires and then got my multimeter to check wether the current is flowing or not. I tested the lemon batter and multimeter could read various amount of current conducting by electrolysis inside the lemon. It worked and then i connect few more lemons to produce voltage around (1.5V) to light an LED. But i needed more lemons for that so i dropped that idea. i had fun making a lemon battery.
