* To assemble a simple '''Robot'''
* About '''.apk '''file to control a '''Robot''' and
* How to install the app on a mobile phone.

|-

* '''Ubuntu Linux 16.04''' OS
* '''Android Phone'''

|-

* '''2 DC Motors'''
* '''Acrylic Robot Chassis with screws and nuts'''
* '''1 Caster Wheel'''
* '''2 DC Motor Wheels'''
* '''Single Strand Wires and'''
* '''Screwdriver '''

|-

I will explain the assembly of a '''robot''' along with the images.

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Slide 7:

Using a soldering iron, solder a red wire and a black wire to the wire leads of the motor as shown.

Repeat this with the other '''DC motor''' as well.

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Slide 8:

Image '''Chassis with Motor '''

'''Point to the image'''
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| This is the acrylic chassis where we will mount the '''DC motor''' and '''Caster Wheel.'''

Along with the chassis we have '''Motor Mounting Brackets''', screws and nuts.

These are the '''Motor Mounting Brackets.'''

They are used to fix the '''DC motors''' to the frame.

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| slide 9:

Now, place one '''DC motor '''here.

Place another '''Motor Mounting Bracket''' from the outside.

Take the long screws and insert them into the two brackets and motor.

Use a nut from the other side to tighten the screw

Repeat this procedure for mounting the other motor on the chassis as well.

Fix the wheels on the motors as shown here.

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"|

Tighten the screws with a screwdriver.

Now, flip the chassis to mount the caster wheel on the same side as the motor.

Mount the caster wheel on four brass spacers using the small screws.

Tighten up each screws so that the caster wheel gets firmly fixed to the chassis

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"|

Further, we need an '''App''' to control the Robot.

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Slide 11:''' '''

'''About .apk file'''
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| An '''APK''' file is an app for the '''Android''' - '''Google's''' mobile operating system.

We have built an '''android app''' to control the robot which we have built.

This won't work on other mobile operating systems like Apple’s iOS.

We have used the '''MIT App Inventor '''platform to build an app named '''Car Bluetooth RC'''

To use this app on your phone, you need to download this .apk file.

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"|

|-
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.5pt solid #000000;border-left:0.5pt solid #000000;border-right:0.5pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| '''Go to the website:'''

'''MIT App Inventor''' is an open source platform to build applications for both '''Android''' and '''iOS.'''

Go through the tutorials and instructions on this website, for more information.

Using the '''MIT app inventor''', I have created the '''Car Bluetooth RC.apk file.'''

Similarly, You can explore, and create your own app for your project using the '''MIT App Inventor.'''
