Post by: Hemendra on January 09, 2014, 10:44:53 AM
Hello everyone!
I had developed the idea to show swarming concept on the grid based pattern. My whole idea is developed but don't know where to start for inplementing it. Please help as it is my final year project. ..

1) Design system
2) Design mechanical entities
3) Build mechanical entities
4) Implement software
5) Done!

Dear friend,
I know all this steps, but what i am stuck at is software part particulary which arduino board adn shield to use, or which simulation programming to use.

You need to be a good bit more specific with the questions if you want specific answers. Otherwise you get a general answer for a general question.

What Ardiuno shield? Well what do you need the shield to do????????
Until you can answer that we can not make a suggestion.

You first need to build a single Bot and it sounds like you have never done this. So you have a good amount of reading and studying to do first.
Start by clicking on "Robot tutorials" in the upper right coner of this web page then read everything there. Then come back to these forums and read all the threads.

Does that mean you have done steps 1, 2 and 3? Do you have pictures/drawings of your built mechanical system? What motors and power system are you using? What sensors?
