Today in we went over the uses for the L293 driver.  The L293 will allow us to have directional control over our motors in our robots.  We then wired our robots to just test the directional control not using the micro controller.  Mine worked when I switched the wires on the L293.  Then we wired in the micro controller with the L293 so we could have speed control.

The above video shows the robot going back and forth and making turns using directional control
