I like your child-like curiosity and excitement! It makes your videos lots of fun. And your daughter is so cute and it is great that you are introducing her to electronics and science at such a young age.
Thank you Duane! 🤗 Your kind words made my day 😄 I don’t know if you watched my most recent video - you might enjoy it: ua-cam.com/video/d5HNa8dlcdw/v-deo.html
I already got things that looked awesome “on paper”, but were still very crude in development, to the point of so much frustration I abandoned the review and never published. But that’s the exception… Usually it is quite cool 😎
Sahil, that was sweet ❤️ Thank you! Absolutely! Oh man... kids grow so fast! We try to not expose her too much on social media - but this time I could not resist 😁 We are doing fine! You take care and be safe!
I agree. Have been doing Arduino projects for years and they almost always work. Your robot has inspired me to get back at mine and update it with XYremote phone app controller. Maybe even buy a kit like this one and play with that.@@GeekDetour
Seems like it needs a way to detect the edge of a drop-off, similar to how a Roomba can detect stairs. Maybe another ultrasonic sensor pointed at a downward angle? The logic would be the opposite of the forward facing sensor - it would need to detect the floor ahead, and if it did NOT detect the floor, then stop & turn.
Nope ❤️ The Arduino clock is 16MHz (million hertz). And at 10:10 you can see in the code that they set a timer interruption that calls the balancing function at every 5 milliseconds (so, 200 times per second)
Your underrated, I wish you more subs and views🙂. Your videos helped me learn a lot, even though I only started checking your videos and your channel 1 hour ago
Ohhh… that’s a super duper complex project - from the mechanical stand point, computer vision and solving algorithm. But you can find many videos on UA-cam of people that built those machines - maybe you can find one that is not so difficult to make. It gets expensive and super complex when you try to do it fast. If speed is not a goal, I saw some simpler ones. Search and you will find. Good luck! 🍀👍
Nice review! The issue with your I2C expansion plan is due to the fact that they must read the accelerometer fairly quickly, at accurate intervals. During that time, you cant use the bus for reading or writing to another device. So, the challenge will be to write code that "caches" up I2C messages, waits for the time BETWEEN Accelerometer readings, and dispatch a message. Basically a message que system for I2C which assigns priority to the Accelerometer. This may mean only writing portions of the display at once, rather than the whole screen. "Slow" GPIO with the PCF8575. The "quick and dirty" way would be to add these other I2C device code routines right after the Accelerometer read. Ideally, since they are using a 5ms sensor loop, you would want all of the additional I2C read/writes to be fast, to keep that whole process much less than 5ms total. It may seem difficult, but 5ms is quite a long time in "microcontroller time." It executes 80,000 instructions in 5ms. ;)
To clarify: you cant write code that just tries to access the I2C bus whenever. Likely you interrupted the attempt to read the accelerometer, or caused the reading to be delayed too long.
Hi there! I absolutely loved your explanation and it totally makes sense - it occurred to me that I should have tried to use the display with I2C right on the same time interruption that reads the accelerometer as you said. I was trying it on the main loop and, I agree, everything you said could have contributed to my failure. Also, the encoders on the wheels are using hardware interrupts and the frequency is much higher than I imagined at first / I still need to better study the priorities around Arduino interruptions, and see which functions have their execution suspended… I smell that the encoders can also making the whole thing very tight - more than the 5ms accelerometer reading. Unfortunately, I never got time to revisit my little Robot friend and continue learning and tweaking its code. Thank you so much for your time and knowledge! I really appreciated your comments! ❤️
@@GeekDetour Seriously.... very few folks on this site have that true pride and enthusiastic approach!! Great videos my man and I tell you that consider helping others learn how to be creative like you.
You made my day 😊👍. Very good video. Keep on going 😁 I also try to understand how it deals with the PID stuff and how it reads the sensor data. Maybe that robot can be pimp with some S.L.A.M. functionality 😊
Love your video and the enthusiasm you express for this product. I bought and assembled it and am ready to try some expansion ideas. But I do not know which pins the IIC is connected to. Can you let me know?
Hi there Bruce! I2C uses +5V (red), Ground (black) , SDA and SCL (on the yellow row) You should see the pins identified by white silk screen on the board, along with the pins.
This is the second video of yours I have watched today. I am an Elegoo customer and I appreciate the time you put into this review. Sharing this with your daughter was nice. I get it. Sharing this with our children just makes exploring Arduino so much better. Keep enjoying. Keep sharing. Keep making. Thx.
I have this exact model. The robot balance fine, but I can't make the Android phone app to work. It connects and that is it. Any suggestions? Also, I found some 6-7 years old software and APP for the phone on Github. But it doesn't work eighter. Thanks!
Hey man! So nice to see you here! Thank you 😃 It is a shame how difficult (and expensive) it is to buy "Arduino" things in Brazil... I feel such a difference here in Spain: I might have ordered near 100 cheap items from AliExpress last year... all of them arrived by mail without problems. Things between 2 to 10 USD. I remember trying to get things from eBay in Brazil, it was always a bet.
Have you played with tuning the PID for balancing? Mine seems to hunt / sway slightly when stationary to stay upright. I think it might be partly due to the (slight) motor gear backlash, but I haven't had a chance to dig in and see if that can be tuned out. Thanks for the great video. It's a fun little kit!
Thank you! No I did not: I would love to play with that using a real-time way to change them. Sure: it has backlash. Don’t know how much better it can be.
Hi I was just wondering if you could possibly expand on your light/switch box from 2 years ago I have been working on one myself for my son who has sensory issues (trying to keep him away from the plug socket switches which he's obsessed with) and I'm struggling on where to start. P.s I love your videos and energy
Thank you so much! I might revisit it at some point - but let’s see if I can get some help for you right now... Here, very extensive instructions for a simples box: ua-cam.com/video/kXD453DdIGg/v-deo.html And the article on instructables with diagrams: www.instructables.com/Childs-Toy-Light-Switch-Box/
@@GeekDetour omg thank you so much this should definitely do the trick I don't know how I didnt find it the only other one I found was in a Plexiglass case but it was buttons to change colours. You really are awesome 👍👍
I am planning to build a two legged robot about a meter high it will have a real gyroscope on the upper 3/4 part of it to balance it I need help on using the pu6050 to control the gyroscope to balance the robot as it walks Please advise Thanks
Hi Sam! There are super good videos about PID control and this accelerometer - you need a better source of knowledge than me, I am also learning about that.
OMG! There are lots of comprehensive tutorials/courses... the best for you depends on the style of the presenter and if the level of depth matches your previous knowledge. Here is a short one: ua-cam.com/video/QO_Jlz1qpDw/v-deo.html and here is basically a full course, very well detailed (to me it drags a bit, but it certainly feels like going through a course): ua-cam.com/play/PLGs0VKk2DiYw-L-RibttcvK-WBZm8WLEP.html
Can the robot’s software be outsourced? I mean it would be nice to run the outsourced software in a remote computing environment (e.g. edge computation node).
This Robot uses a Bluetooth module - and it is possible to make better control of it changing the code and using an Arduino to send the commands (or write your own App). You could go to the Support area in the Elegoo Website and download the code from there, and open it in the Arduino IDE to check it that’s something you can understand and tweak 👍
Hi Mike! 👋 I am still trying several different plastic cases to keep my Arduino boards and modules - but I don’t fell in love with any particular model. I bought what was available nearby my house just to keep my things a bit organized. I prefer transparent cases, I don’t like removable divisions, I pay particular attention to how the lid is connected to the case: I avoid cases that the lid is a single piece with the body, because the hinges eventually break.
Hi there! As a first Arduino Kit, you should not get a Car or Robot (because you will treat it more as a toy than as a Kit of experiments). Get the Elegoo Kit I show in this video: ua-cam.com/video/uzr-jrLU3EU/v-deo.html
I suppose some kits are more popular than others and they have a bigger production... I searched for the Tumbller on Amazon Germany and they didn’t have it. Here in Spain I can find it. The “Smart Robot Car” is much easier to find.
Yeah, 12 years can totally assemble and play with it. Not sure about programming/changing it (depends on the interest/previous experience in programming). If you are in doubt between this and an RC car, there are cheap RC cars that will be much more in the “action” side.
Hi there! This robot kit doesn’t seem to be the best choice to display the temperature and humidity - all the pins are basically used. There are much cheaper kits that allow you to do such project. The Grove Beginner Kit is one of them: ua-cam.com/video/-tl1E6PbWlg/v-deo.html And either the official Arduino Starter Kit or an Elegoo kit also can be used to do that: ua-cam.com/video/uzr-jrLU3EU/v-deo.html

And very often, when the video is sponsored, the brand requires the creator to submit for their reviewing and approval (after all, it is a paid piece). Only after green light the video is made public. So, you don't have a candid, clear opinion of the creator. So far, I NEVER submitted my videos for revision.

Hello there! By far the most popular way to program Arduinos is to use the “Arduino IDE” (recommended for your first steps into the Arduino world) and you write code in C++ The amount of examples and tutorials on the Web and UA-cam is amazing - you shouldn’t be frightened by the fact it is C++, even more because most Arduino projects are quite simple, to the point. If you are asking about “Functional Programming” in Arduino, there might be a few experimental language projects… it is not mainstream. If you are looking to program in high-level languages (like Python or JavaScript), there are a few options - but maybe the best thing is to use an ESP32 board (instead of the typical Arduino board).
On the Elegoo Website you can find it under the downloads section (if you need more help than this, I must tell you, Arduino will be too hard for you).
Dices, ¿de estar hacia adelante y atrás igual una persona en un monociclo? En realidad lo está haciendo, pero de manera tan controlada y rápida que casi no se ve. Los motores están vibrando constantemente para ir contra la mas sutil inclinación.

Nice !. Could you please share the Arduino Code for Tumbler?. Actually, the link on the elegoo site no longer works, so I couldn't download the source code.
I am curious: why? Did something happened with the USB of your Arduino Nano? (if so, it might be simples just buying another Arduino Nano and just plug it on the socked of the Robot’s board. Or are you asking about something fancier, like, wireless upload?
Ha ha ha, yeah! I am using an iPhone 8 Plus with 256GB - it is still PERFECT to me: awesome camera, 4k videos, everything very snappy. BUT, I kept my previous iPhones: iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPhone 3G 😜

Looks like a delicious tweaking project!
0:36 actually, it calculates how to move every 16 times every second, because it is clocked at 16Hz.
Nope ❤️ The Arduino clock is 16MHz (million hertz). And at 10:10 you can see in the code that they set a timer interruption that calls the balancing function at every 5 milliseconds (so, 200 times per second)

Which programming language used in arduino to make it functional.
Hello there! By far the most popular way to program Arduinos is to use the “Arduino IDE” (recommended for your first steps into the Arduino world) and you write code in C++
The amount of examples and tutorials on the Web and UA-cam is amazing - you shouldn’t be frightened by the fact it is C++, even more because most Arduino projects are quite simple, to the point.
If you are asking about “Functional Programming” in Arduino, there might be a few experimental language projects… it is not mainstream.
If you are looking to program in high-level languages (like Python or JavaScript), there are a few options - but maybe the best thing is to use an ESP32 board (instead of the typical Arduino board).
@@GeekDetour Thank you so much sir 😁💓
Great vídeo!
Thanks!!!! 🤗❤️ é nóis 🇧🇷
Both informative and cute video.
Thanks!!! ❤️
Wowwwwww finally a video
This one took a while to finish! Just editing took 2 weeks!
This is great robot, want to make one, but can't find the Arduino code, can anyone help me with that!?
On the Elegoo Website you can find it under the downloads section (if you need more help than this, I must tell you, Arduino will be too hard for you).
Look at that grown up lil kid
They grow so fast! 🥲
Sir love you from India
Thanks! ❤️🤣 Good vides for you from Spain 🇪🇸
Por que no hace el balance?
Dices, ¿de estar hacia adelante y atrás igual una persona en un monociclo? En realidad lo está haciendo, pero de manera tan controlada y rápida que casi no se ve. Los motores están vibrando constantemente para ir contra la mas sutil inclinación.
The king has returned!!
Ha ha ha, thanks! I might be the King of my cubicle 🤣 dilbert.com/strip/1994-08-27
Can you give me the code and the educational material please, I need it
It's on Elegoo download center: www.elegoo.com/pages/download Choose "STEM Kits", Robot Kits, then Tumbler.
wow nice unboxing 👍🏻
Thank you 🤗
Nice video
Thank you!!! 😁
Great video...subbed. Thanks
Thank you! 😄 Welcome to the channel!
Thank you for your effort. It is very informative Thanks...
If this video doesn't make you smile there is something wrong with you.
Oh, that’s so sweet 🥹 Thanks! Maybe you will like this one too: ua-cam.com/video/-mUCLjED3gU/v-deo.html
Can you make a arduino course for beginners?
I though about it a few times 😄🤔
@@GeekDetour i hope see it hurry because i have a arduino but i don't know how to use it. I love your channel, it very fun, relaxing and knowledgeable, you are also very enthusiastic. 1 love for you. Thank you. Hope your channel grows bigger and bigger
Oh! Thanks! You are very kind. Hey, this is not a course, but I personally love this channel, hope it help you: ua-cam.com/play/PLWNDWPAClRVoIZzsX-SkR5Br0_ZtRscxZ.html

lets make drone with elegoo
That would be fun, right? 😆
Good day sir I'm currently doing engineering and want to do this project can u please help me out with this
Your daughter is cute.
Thanks! 🥰 She has A LOT of “personality”, let’s put it this way 😬🤣
Nice !. Could you please share the Arduino Code for Tumbler?. Actually, the link on the elegoo site no longer works, so I couldn't download the source code.
Programm of Arduino please
Use PID or no?
It uses PID of course. But I didn’t play with them - the values came pretty much well tuned.
Can we program a nano arduino without usb
I am curious: why? Did something happened with the USB of your Arduino Nano? (if so, it might be simples just buying another Arduino Nano and just plug it on the socked of the Robot’s board. Or are you asking about something fancier, like, wireless upload?
I am not having a usb cable it was my cousins project when be brougth it I just broke it and took the arduino i am trying to letter showing led.
I want to big make hoverboard .you give me idea
We dont want to code it
So, don’t code it! 😆
An RC-Car is even better! 🏎
Glad to know you still don’t use an iPhone 5
Ha ha ha, yeah! I am using an iPhone 8 Plus with 256GB - it is still PERFECT to me: awesome camera, 4k videos, everything very snappy. BUT, I kept my previous iPhones: iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPhone 3G 😜
@@GeekDetour that's a lot of phones :)
Good job bro, @
Thank YOU! 😄
