Let's make it move+Programming

Hmm...What car suppose to do? it's suppose to move and our purpose is it need to move by itself so what do we need hmm.... "Motor".

The programming of the robot was fairly simple, yet still I had quite a few problems. The programming of the Arduino was simple and I had no difficulties while programing. First problem was that the the drive period was too short so the motor didn't have enough time to move at all. If the motor drive period was too long the motor control was inaccurate because it moved so fast. So I had to test to find the middle ground.The second problem was that the 3D printed wheels had no grip at all so I added some grip tape so the wheels wouldn't spin freely. The third problem was that the 9 volt battery didn't have enough voltage to make the big car move and we couldn't make the robot any lighter else the motors would come off. I solved this problem by 12 volt power supply which made the robot move like its supposed to.
