Object Follower Robot
Hi, I'm Saksham from Lucknow, India and here is my newly made 'object follower Robot'. It all started late in 2011 when I joined the 'BrainCafe Robotics Workshop'. During the workshop we were taught building simple robots including robots like object follower, object avoider, clap controlled etc. However the working of the robot was not explained to us properly. We simply wired up the sensors on the main board using berg connectors and the robot was good to go. So now, after 3 long years I pulled out that robotics kit once again and modified it to work better. Here are the differences between the modified robot and what the kit included- The simple transistor based 'main board', which the kit included, has been replaced by the Arduino Uno micro controller which behaves according to a program, written using a computer. The kit included 2 optical sensors i.e. left and right. However I have added another sensor in the middle for better r...
