Automatic Toll Plaza Robotic Kit– Assembly Video & Arduino Code

// C++ Arduino Code (Copy Below)

#include <Servo.h>

// Define pins

const int trigPin = 5;

const int echoPin = 6;

const int servoPin = 9;

// Variables

  // Read echo time

  // Calculate distance (in cm)

  distance = duration * 0.034 / 2;

  Serial.print("Distance: ");

  Serial.print(distance);

  Serial.println(" cm");

  // If object is near (less than 15 cm)

  if (distance > 0 && distance < 15) {

    dustbinServo.write(90);  // Open lid

What You Need for This Project

To build this Automatic Goalkeeper, we used the following parts from the Plzpapa Basic Robotic Kit:

• Arduino Uno Board
• Servo Motor (SG90)
• Ultrasonic Sersor
• Wooden Goalkeeper Structure
• Jumper Wires
• (No soldering required!)
