Hardware Block Diagram

DiagramaCircuito.drawio (2).png

The diagrams were made using the software Altium.

The hardware circuit will be powered by a 12V battery. This 12V voltage will then be stepped down to 6V,5V and 9V through 3 voltage regulators.

The Arduino Mega 2560 will be powered by 9V and command all the other modules in the system
The voltage regulator of 5V voltage will feed everything but the Led Tape, Servo motors and Arduino
The servo motors have a 6V power supply and are controlled by pwm signals from the Arduino mega
The servo motors have a separated voltage regulator, with a single line connecting their ground to the ground of the rest of the system
The OLED Display works through an i2c interface that is controlled by the Arduino mega
The ESP module will have its own code that will take care of taking the picture and will give the necessary information to the Arduino through UART ports, as seen in the Diagram
The Led Tape is controlled by an relay that is connected to the Arduino mega
