sorry guys for the long break i had school stuff and i thought this had ended. so i have had the follow function of the car which is the autonomous part of the car. i also added a button into the webpage to select between manual and auto mode. with that all the major coding is done i think ofc the debugging remains. Also i was thinking of maybe adding a ultrasonic sensor to it what is your guys thought on that.
finally got the two board to connect to each other via esp now protocole. now the second board is sending its RSSI value to the main board to calculate the direction of the phone.
hey, my code for the motor driver was buggy so solved most of those also made the second file in platformIO to code for the second esp32, which is to act as an antenna for the follow function
finished the logic for the l298n motor driver
finally got the value from the webpage to convert into an int value that i can use. I had to parse the data since the value from page is comming as text and with a comma in the middle of the two value for two sides. i hope to use the two sliders to control the car like a tank , iam not sure how easy it would be to control it but lets find out i guess. I havent yet started on the follow function because i have some doubts on how i would go about doing it.
just finished the web site for the controller. i re did the entire code i wasnt happy with other because i used to much ai so i learnde enough of web dev and made it myself but still had help, this is my first website so pls forgive me for using ai even though its only for some helping. Anyway, i thought i would add the follow feature later. The code seem to have some bugs especially the resetslider dont work and some css issue. i will solve that next.
HEY iam trying to make a esp32 based car that is controlled by a web based remote that is hosted by the esp. i am thinking of using a WebSocket protocol to minimize lag . also i want to add a follow mode where it follows you around by using the wifi signal strength of your phone. i taught of this idea when i heard somewhere that you could use wifi signal to see through walls, if it can see through wall why not make it hunt you. i am not a experienced programmer i am a beginner but i heard somewhere that doing is the best way to learn. I need all your help and feedback so wish me luck.
