MiniBot is a robot I created to test my new nanoDuino boards. It is based in an old Mini Cooper toy car I had. It is a very small car, almost the size of a arduino UNO board.
How it only had space for two AA batteries, I decided to use a cell-phone one and created a holder for it using some perfboard and headers.
It has one only distance sensor, the SHARP you can see on the front and a encoder which tells the position of the front wheels. The motors are driven by the SMD version of the L293D, the L293DD, which is in shield soldered directly under the nanoduino.
