My first little robot based on PICBASIC 3B microcontroller, SN754410 H-Bridge and GP2D02 infra-red distance sensor

Features

Comfile PICBASIC 3B microcontroller (it's a PIC 16f876 with a bootloader, a debuger and an integrated basic language interpreter [unfortunately it's an hideous language])
Motors drive by SN754410 H-bridge (Texas Instruments)
Sharp GP2D02 distance measuring sensor mounted on servomotor for sweeping
3 microswitchs for chocs detection
HP48 with terminal emulator for display and commands
Cybot chassis (motors and wheels)

The Motor control board

The motor board is based on the SN754410 H-bridge (Texas Instruments). It's drived by PWM signal from the MCU. To lines come from the MCU board for PWM signal, and 2 lines for direction control.
