Recently I saw a cool project called a “Follow Me Cooler”. This got me thinking that it would be really cool to make something similar to this that Debby could put bags of groceries on after she goes grocery shopping and they would follow her into the apartment. This page will outline my progress on building that project.
I will start off with just one as a test to see how it will work but would like to build at least a couple. The idea is for each cart to be able to carry at least 3 bags of groceries but might consider ideas of a way to expand and shrink it so it can be shrunk down to carry 1 bag or expanded to carry 3. I still need to think about how to go about that and if it is feasible.
To support this project I bought the following
- Arduino
- Stepper motor drivers for Arduino
