```c++
const int leftMotorForward = 2; // Pin for left motor forward signal
const int leftMotorBackward = 3; // Pin for left motor backward signal
const int rightMotorForward = 4; // Pin for right motor forward signal
const int rightMotorBackward = 5; // Pin for right motor backward signalvoid setup() {
pinMode(leftMotorForward, OUTPUT);
pinMode(leftMotorBackward, OUTPUT);
pinMode(rightMotorForward, OUTPUT);
pinMode(rightMotorBackward, OUTPUT);
}void loop() {
// Move forward
digitalWrite(leftMotorForward, HIGH);
digitalWrite(rightMotorForward, HIGH);
delay(1000);
// Move backward
digitalWrite(leftMotorBackward, HIGH);
digitalWrite(rightMotorBackward, HIGH);
delay(1000);
// Stop
digitalWrite(leftMotorForward, LOW);
digitalWrite(leftMotorBackward, LOW);
digitalWrite(rightMotorForward, LOW);
digitalWrite(rightMotorBackward, LOW);
delay(1000);
}
```
### Example 2: Autonomous Navigation with Raspberry PiThis example demonstrates how to use the Goli Castor Wheel with a Raspberry Pi to create an autonomous navigation system:
```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time# Set up GPIO pins for motor control
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
left_motor_forward = 17
left_motor_backward = 23
right_motor_forward = 24
right_motor_backward = 25GPIO.setup(left_motor_forward, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(left_motor_backward, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(right_motor_forward, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(right_motor_backward, GPIO.OUT)def move_forward():
GPIO.output(left_motor_forward, GPIO.HIGH)
GPIO.output(right_motor_forward, GPIO.HIGH)def move_backward():
GPIO.output(left_motor_backward, GPIO.HIGH)
GPIO.output(right_motor_backward, GPIO.HIGH)def turn_left():
GPIO.output(left_motor_backward, GPIO.HIGH)
GPIO.output(right_motor_forward, GPIO.HIGH)def turn_right():
GPIO.output(left_motor_forward, GPIO.HIGH)
GPIO.output(right_motor_backward, GPIO.HIGH)while True:
# Read sensor data (e.g., ultrasonic, lidar, or camera) to determine navigation
# ...
# Move forward
move_forward()
time.sleep(1)
# Turn left
turn_left()
time.sleep(0.5)
# Move backward
move_backward()
time.sleep(1)
# Turn right
turn_right()
time.sleep(0.5)
```
These examples demonstrate the basic usage of the Goli Castor Wheel in various contexts. You can modify and extend this code to fit your specific project requirements.
