Working on Code For Tank

We have been working on code that will have the tank drive and use the ultrasonic sensor to see things in front of it so it makes a turn until there ins't anything in front.

This is a piece of our code:

void stopm(void);
void forward(void);
void inputs(void);
void sharpright(void);

int duration;
float distance;

void setup(void)
{
  Serial.begin (9600);
  pinMode(trigger, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(echo, INPUT);
  pinMode(IN1 ,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(IN2,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(IN3,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(IN4,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(ENA,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(ENB,OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(ENA,HIGH);
  digitalWrite(ENB,HIGH);
 }

Design for Tank Robot.

We where thinking on our tanked robot design such as where are we going to put the sensors on the root because we taped down the ultrasonic sensor and we want to get something else to hold it down that looks better. Also our battery keeps falling out and it isn't secured so we thought we could tape it underneath. Our next step is getting some code where our root can sense a edge of a table and not roll off.

Fixing code

We fixed the code we got off  of GitHub, by changing the pins so they match with our pins. Also running the code on our Tank robot

const int leftDirControl1 = 2;
const int leftDirControl2 = 3;
const int leftSpeedControlPin = 9; // Needs to be a PWM pin to be able to control motor speed

// Right Motor
const int rightDirControl1 = 4;
const int rightDirControl2 = 5;
const int rightSpeedControlPin = 10; // Needs to be a PWM pin to be able to control motor speed
