BUILDING
MY OWN
ROBOT

2. This project is about a car with an electric
motor similar to a toy car that with the
help of an electric motor that transforms
electrical energy into mechanical energy
by means of electromagnetic interactions,
makes it move with the help of a battery.

3. • The purpose of this project is to help children and young people
to find an interesting and fun way to do science and technology,
spending their time doing an educational project.

4. ¿How this project helps the environment?
R/Although plastic has proven to be less harmful to the environment than previously
thought, the sheer volume of plastic waste poses another problem, and the best method of
disposal is not very clear. More than 85 percent of plastic waste is usually buried in special
sites or incinerated. Projects like this can teach us how important it is to recycle plastic.
¿How to make homemade robots?
R/Making an easy homemade robot is feasible, actually a robot is any machine or device
that is under some programming to perform any activity automatically in response to some
impulse or stimulus usually electro mechanical.

5. • Generate electricity at low cost.
• It is used to generate electrical energy, which supplies the energy
necessary to start the trolley in motion.
• To demonstrate by means of this cart that energy is neither
created nor destroyed, only transformed.
• To reduce plastic in cities and to teach children and young people
to recycle.

6. • What we are about to make is a recyclable cart with a motor, the following we will explain the
Physical Laws that were applied to make the recyclable cart move, we will describe the materials
that were used to make the prototype and images and the steps. Physical Laws: In the motor of the
prototype different laws of electromagnetism and classical mechanics, such as Newton's laws, can
be observed.
Project Description:

7. Step by step: how the homemade electric car
was made
1. The first step to make your homemade electric car is to take the plastic straw and cut it twice. Ideally, its size
should be the same width as the bottle.
2. Now, with the hot silicone, glue the two straws across the width of the bottle. With this step you will have
obtained the axles of your electric vehicle.
3. Continue by inserting the wooden skewer into one of the straws, and put the skewer through a cap at each
end of the straw. Don't forget to fix it with silicone on the inside! Otherwise, the structure of your car will be
weak and will fall apart as soon as you turn it on.
4. The next step is to cut off the excess wood. In this step we recommend you to check if the wheels move
normally or, if not, if they have difficulties to turn.
5. Glue the battery on the car - it's almost in shape!

8. STEP BY STEP: HOW THE HOMEMADE ELECTRIC CAR WAS MADE
6.Cut the other plastic bottle in half and make cuts towards the cap, in the shape of a helix.
7. .Make a small hole in the propeller cap and hot glue the motor to the cap, leaving some free space.
8.Glue the motor to the back of the car and connect the motor wires to the battery.
9.Turn on the motor and that's it! Your electric car can now run.
By following the above steps you will have your homemade electric car up and running in no time. Let us
know in the comments area how was your experience with this homemade technique to make your own
electric motor vehicle.

9. ¿HOW DOES THIS PROJECT WORK?
• Every motor is based on the idea that magnetism
produces a physical force that moves objects. In
order to function, a motor makes use of the forces
of attraction and repulsion that exist between the
poles. Accordingly, every motor must be formed
with alternating poles between the stator and the
rotor, since the same magnetic poles repel each
other, and different magnetic poles attract each
other, thus producing the rotational movement.
• The figure shows how the rotational motion is
produced in an electric motor.

10. • In the development of this project I learned that plastic or materials that can be
reused in a good way, can become very entertaining because through the
creation of your own robot you can learn many new things and who knows you
can give a good gift to nature.

11. • Through the development of this project I was able to reach the conclusion that
the use of waste should start at home. Ideally, waste should be sorted according
to its physical composition in order to prevent recyclable materials from ending
up in landfills. And also that thanks to the use of recyclable material, education
with didactic material is achieved as an economic, environmental and social
alternative.

12. • As you can see in the development of my project I could not make the robot,
but I want to thank the channel rcinventor tv for relizar these types of
experiments and thus help to recycle in a more fun and entertaining way.
