Introduction
“Existential Robot” is a prototype for an independent robot. His main activities are moving around and expressing his feelings about life in general.
General Description
The Robot will move around in a random pattern - on wheels, powered by two DC motors, one for each side. The motors will be integrated with ATmega324 using a L298N motor driver. The Robot will be careful not to hit something; so, two infrared sensors will send information about near obstacles.
For voice, .ad4 audio files will be played through a speaker from a SD card connected to WTV020-SD audio module.

Electrical Scheme
Software Design
I used Timer0 and Timer1 for PWM. Implemented an algorithm for random movements using information from infrared sensors.
Results
Audio module and motor driver.
Overview.
Conclusions
The design could be better.
An overall awesome experience, I got to see what IoT means.
