Robot Leonardo under construction
A motorised wheelchair base it incorporates the original motors and the joystick controller.
Its design allows components to be removed so that modifications and tests can be carried out quiet easily.
the four ir receivers are mounted away from pcb to give more accuracy ,also the front ir is mounted on a servo
Your assistance with programming the ir beacon was much appreciated it works quite well.

Video to follow
testing mindwave headset at present
will forward specs later today
Keep it coming !
First of all the Beacons works in pairs, one is fitted on Leonardo and I hold the second one so the Robot will track my location ,eg I remain stationary and say the "left sensor" on robot detects IR the robot will turn left , once the "front sensor" detects IR the robot will move forward
Take a look here it explains how it

Re colour
Its the original CTM Power Chair model HS5600
Specs (original)
Travel Range 25 miles
2 x 12 volt batteries
charging takes 2-3 hours,but I never fully discharge
Note EZ-B is not connected as second EZ-B on dome is used for test easier to access, eventually this card will operate all functions.
I intend to possibly place the chair back on the base and have a wii strapped on ones arm to move forward reverse left & right. But can' wait to integrate the Mindwave Headset .
