Robots, a programmable machine for complex automatically actions. At basic level robot can be used as a tool to learn science, technology and engineering concepts with all practical scopes. This workshop on autonomous robots will make our participants to design and develop a robot which can take its own decision to move in either direction or to take turn in a particular direction. The types of autonomous robot our students will develop are line follower robot, obstacle avoid and edge avoid robot.
Prerequisites:-
Can access computer system and make use of internet to perform search over Google.
Need to Prepare?
Prior programming experience is not required.
Tools Expected:-
Windows OS based PC, Internet Connection, Notebook and Pen
Tools Provided (for the session):-
L293D Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver Board, IR sensor, DC geared motors, Chassis, Caster wheel, Clamp, Wheel, Screw Driver, Stud, Screw, Battery Connector with DC Jack
Concepts:-
Operating System, Logic creation, Integrated circuit, Basic of electronics, Motors
Summary:-
This workshop will be addressed with hands-on session in developing interesting robotic car which can make its own decision using sensor input. The IR sensor will guide the robot on a black line and make it follow the defined path from start to end.
