Not sure if they answer such questions here, but still (correct, if that). I'm going to make a cleaning robot out of my home vacuum cleaner, with an algorithm that I have already invented. Already picked up the fee (Arduino), and already thought of many details. But I can not understand how much power I buy a motor and, accordingly, what power to take the battery (maybe everything will be from the network). Is there any algorithm for the selection of motor power? Maybe you need a dynamometer to shake the vacuum cleaner?
The vacuum cleaner weighs 5 kg + all sorts of boards and whistles 2 kg. With only 2 wheels, and some of the weight is redistributed to the floor (I found an algorithm for only 4 wheels http://www.robotics.ru/volov/Rover1_rus.html). I am going to transmit the rotation either directly into the wheels of the vacuum cleaner, or through the contact of small wheels connected to the motor and the wheels of the vacuum cleaner (they are 40 cm in diameter). How to choose the right one? And, if possible, give a link to examples of such motors.
