Introduction: Talking Robot
This is a tutorial on how to make a prank involving a robot that plays sounds when somebody walks by. This prank uses an Arduino, a distance sensor, a servo motor and a DF Player amongst other materials. We hope that you get funny reactions from your prank! Awesome robot built by Steve Davis :)
Step 1: Materals
(1x) Robot or another inanimate object
(1x) Arduino Uno
(1x) Breadboard
(1x) Speaker
(1x) Servo Motor
(1x) DF Player
(1x) Micro SD Card loaded with MP3 sounds
(1x) Powerbank
(1x) 1k ohm resistor
(1x) Distance Sensor
Tape or adhesive (to mount)
(15x) Electric Wires (specify later)
(1x) USB to USB-A Type
Step 2: Setup
The photo above shows the setup of the project.
The circuit should be set up as follows:
Step 3: Assembly: Breadboard
Let's connect 5V and the GND pin on the Arduino to the breadboard.
Step 4: Load a Micro SD Card With MP3 Sounds
Step 5: Connect the DF Player Mini
Insert the micro SD card into the DF Player Mini and place the entire component into the breadboard. Take your 1K resistor and insert it into the breadboard, use two wires to connect to pins 8 and 9.
Step 6: Connect the Speaker
Connect the wires from the speaker into the breadboard.
Step 7: Connect the Distance Sensor
We're now going to connect a distance sensor, yay! Take your sensor and insert it into the breadboard. You will need two wires to connect the distance sensor in the breadboard to the Arduino, utilizing pins 3 and 2. Place three more wires as is shown in the photo.
Step 8: Mount the Servo Motor
Step 9: Connect the Servo Motor
Now it's time to get our distance senor moving! After mounting the Servo Motor onto the breadboard we are going to connect a wire to pin 5 on the Arduino. Place the other two wires from the Motor into the breadboard as shown.
