README
README.mdTrack-Mower
A conceptual grass mower equipped with tracks for enhanced mobility.
Overview
The Track-Mower is built around the ESP D1 Mini microcontroller, which provides WiFi, Bluetooth, and BLE capabilities. Communication between the driver and the mower is established via Bluetooth. Commands are sent as single characters, with each character corresponding to a specific action the mower will execute for a predefined duration.
Features
- Microcontroller: ESP D1 Mini with WiFi, Bluetooth, and BLE.
- Command-based Control: Simple single-character commands for predefined actions.
- Bluetooth Communication: Reliable connection between the mower and a smartphone.
How to Use
To operate the Track-Mower:
- Install the Serial Bluetooth Terminal app on your Android device.
- Pair your smartphone with the Track-Mower via Bluetooth.
- Use the app to send commands to the mower.
Command List
The following commands can be used to control the Track-Mower:
| Command | Action | Duration | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| F | Forward | 1 second | Moves the mower forward. |
| B | Backward | 1 second | Moves the mower backward. |
| R | Right | 0.5 second | Turns the mower to the right using both tracks. |
| L | Left | 0.5 second | Turns the mower to the left using both tracks. |
| M | Mower | Gradual | Spins up the blades gradually. |
Example Usage
To drive the mower forward for 2 seconds, turn left, and then start the blades:

Future Improvements
Here are some ideas for future enhancements:
- Advanced Controller: Develop a controller for precise real-time control of the Track-Mower.
- PCB Redesign: Improve the PCB design to provide more stable current sensing.
- Code Optimization: Refactor the codebase and port it to an RTOS for better performance and scalability.

Questions
How big is the Tank mower controller V1 PCB?
It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Tank mower controller V1 use?
256 parts, built around the TLV2775AIN, DRV8833PWP, PCF8574T and AMS1117-5.0. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Tank mower controller V1 KiCad files?
From the RobbeElsermans/track-mower repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/tank_mower_controller/tank_mower_controller_V1/tank_mower_controller_V1.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/tank_mower_controller/tank_mower_controller_V1/current_signal_converter.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Tank mower controller V1 design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
