Seeking Advice on Robotic Art Project: $25 Reward
I am making a fairly simple robotic art project and would love advice on the build. I will send a check for $25 to whoever gives the most simple, workable guidelines to help me!
The idea is a randomly moving artwork on 4 wheels, rolling on a flat concrete floor indoors, at fairly slow speed within a gallery.
I probably need to run it off a car battery and will use 4 wheels that will run off some programing. The programming will be intended to run it continuously, moving at random distances and directions. I will have to stop it from hitting walls and other objects with sensors etc. The size is about 8 feet long by 4 feet wide and 3 feet high and will weight about 400 pounds. It is not top heavy, so no worries about stability.
What is the simplist, most elegant way to carry this out?
Please offer advice on wheels, wheel hardware and programming platform details. Thank you to the amazing community here for your feedback!
