Great project😊 I know you can power an arduino/raspberry with the same power supply of the motors with L298N module. Are you doing the same thing with TB6612 ?
Q : Hi Kevin, great video! I currently have a 3s 4200mAh Li-Po battery and a 200w wireless power transfer development kit from Wurth Elektronik that includes 2 coils a receiver and transmitter board. My question is, how would i charge my battery with it? Do i need the microlipo board and a bms to safely charge the battery?
@@kevinmcaleer28 maybe there's an easier way, too... just working with an IR receiver on the robot and a sender on the basestation, just like those old robot vacuums had
With these modules there isn't a lot to add really. They have a vcc and a gnd, and you would connect them up to the battery charging circuit inputs. the other module simply needs the voltage and GND inputs
Hi - have you looked online? I googled ‘wireless charging components’ and they appear there. Whereabouts in the world are you based; availability of parts can be different in different parts of the world, however these are very common
@@kevinmcaleer28 I’m in Malaysia, so close to China supplies. I have a project I want to do wireless charging on, but no experience. So though I could start with something proven to work.
Great video. I just got this kit and will try doing something with it. Keep up the good work 💯
Thank you Kevin ❤
Brilliant project congratulations
Great video! What kind of infill did you go for on those 3d printed parts? I think this might be an idea worth using in my pico Zumo robot.
Thanks! I went for a 50% infill
Most important question though is how fast does this charge?
Hi👋do you perhaps have a follow up video on this that will make the robot automatically go to the dock when it is low power?
Amazing video!

Great Video! Are you using a BMS or can the Arduino do that job?
Trailer time!

May i ask po if how much did you spend on this project?
Sure - wireless charging coils are less than $5, so very affordable to add to a project
Are the coils made of copper? Would you be able to cut the long straight copper sections and solder back together to fit into smaller spaces?
The coil is a tuned circuit so cuttings and soldering will probably affect it. Why not give it a try and report back
awesome video, Kevin!!! but now, the question is: How do I get the robot to drive autonomously on the charger 🤔😁
I think that might be a job for some AI and object detection, maybe a QR code. Another method maybe to use Bluetooth beacons - not tried that yet

where can i find an electricity diagram of this project? Thanks beforehand for the answer!

Great video Friend
Thanks Bibek!
Can this be powered from the socket - AC, or do I need to have a DC power supply to charge the battery ?
where can i get ur desgn? I really need one.
Hi! What is that small board to which the battery is connected?
Its a LiPo battery charger - the Adafruit MicroLipo

Q: I could not find the components for the wireless charging on the linked website. Did I miss something?

Would I need a diode or anything on the positive end that connects to the mail board ?
I didn’t need one as you can see in the video - it has all the circuitry required and just passed the voltage straight through
@@kevinmcaleer28 nice I'm adding one to my cordless hair clippers just trying to invent something different!
@@kevinmcaleer28 but I also see your reciever and transmitter have the PCB board mine come as 1 hope it works 😀
so much thanks
Can I get 60Watt power from wireless mode?
can i have the link to the stl files?
Sure - here you go github.com/kevinmcaleer/Wireless-Charging-STLs
Is it possible for humanoid robots?
Sure, there no limitation really
@@kevinmcaleer28 Then where would you put it?
@@magnaknight9252 where ever you like, on the foot, in the hand, in the back,
@@kevinmcaleer28 Ok. Is there a way to make it waterproof? I’m just new to all this, and I want to learn how to make robots.
@@magnaknight9252 well that entirely depends on the robot your building. There are plenty of underwater robots so it’s entirely possible
7 mA wont enough for my project. 😔, oh wait its only 1mA, 🤪
