CONVERT A MOUSE INTO ROBOT

The basic concept is this way:–>The two motors on the side propels the mouse fast in front
–>When an obstacle is detected in front the signal From IR is stops one of the motor from moving thus turning the bot to one side.
–>So the bot never hits and moves like a real mouse searching its way through.
Mechanical Setup:-There's actually nothing much as mechanical setup. Just stick two motors on either side of the mouse as show in fig A) below. It must be inclined as shown in figure B) which is its front side view.
Circuit Involved :-


–>Circuit involves just two 7805 regulator and one BC107 transistor.
–>i guess you are able to see the circuit involved here.
–>The two motors runs on direct supply from the battery with a 7805 regulator in between.which is to just isolate the supply to the other motor when one motor supply is grounded
–>When the IR SENSOR detects the obstacle it will give a 5v signal which drives the Transistor and ground the supply to the motor 2 thus stopping it.
–>While motor 1 is still running the bot turns right.
–>As soon as the 
IR SENSOR stops detecting the obstacles it drives the other motor too driving the bot in front.
If you have even a little basics in electronics you can follow this circuit. In case you'l need explanation please leave a comment.
