Abstract
Our robot is design to be able to follow the black line on the white board. It is not good when line is not continous, because robot will start to make unpredictible things. The robot stops, when it will approach to the obstacle for distance approximately less than 5 cm. When obstacle is removed, vehicle continue following the line.
Hardware Design: Our robot is an Acrob robot to which we have attached a set of 2 sensors: distance detecting sensor and light intensity detecting sensor. We wanted to use minimal amount of sensors and get a line following robot which stops when obstacle occure.
Software Design: In the main loop, detected color is compared with constant value. Depending on result, robot is going forward and turning to left/right at the same time. Before this is done, program is checking if there is any obstacle detected. If it is true, it stops, otherwise it going.
