Path Tracking Robotic Vehicle by Programmed Microcontroller

This document describes a path tracking robotic vehicle controlled by a programmed microcontroller. The robotic vehicle uses a pair of photo sensors, with an IR transmitter and photo diode, to detect a specified path and guide the robot's forward movement. The microcontroller receives input signals from the sensors and drives two DC motors interfaced through a motor driver IC to move the robot along the path as programmed. The system fulfills the desired functionality of a path tracking robot and demonstrates its working. It could be enhanced with additional sensors like ultrasonics to detect obstacles and take appropriate actions.

PATH TRACKING ROBOTIC VEHICLE BY PROGRAMMED

MICROCONTROLLER
ABSTRACT

The project is designed to develop and control a robotic vehicle that follows a specific path using
a programmed microcontroller of the 8051 family. A pair of photo sensors comprising IR
transmitter and photo-diode is interfaced with controller to detect specified path for its forward
movement.
Path tracking robotic vehicle is a useful robot that is used in warehouses, industries and stores,
etc., where it follows a dedicated path. This proposed system of path tracking robot fulfils the
desired functionality and demonstrates working of it. It uses a pair of photo sensors, comprising
of one IR transmitter and a photo diode in each. It guides the robot to follow a specified path by
giving appropriate signal to the microcontroller. Two DC motors used are interfaced with the
microcontroller through a motor-driver IC. The input signals are given to the microcontroller
from the sensors, and then the controller take appropriate action according to the program written
in it and drives the motors as desired.
Furthermore, this project can be enhanced by adding more advanced sensors to it. This will add
more features to the existing project. For example, we can use ultrasonic sensors to detect any
obstacle in front of the robot and to take appropriate action.
