This advanced motor driver supports forward and reverse and can be remote controlled through the serial interface

The advanced motor driver is a simple H bridge from two pairs of power MOSFETs. The driver supports forward, reverse, stop, and multiple speeds. The driver can be remote controlled through the serial interface. The project includes a Python application with a little UI as remote control. To prepare the vehicle for its future role as a line follow robot, a "forward step" has been implemented as well. The nexts tasks in the project are: transfer of the breadboard to a (generic) PCB, control of the servo for steering, and finally getting rid of the wires using a pair of XBees.
