University of Engineering and Technology Lahore: Voice Control Robot & Obstacle Avoidance Project

The document describes a voice controlled robot project that uses an Arduino Uno microcontroller. The robot avoids obstacles using an ultrasonic sensor and moves according to voice commands received from a smartphone app via Bluetooth. The app converts voice to text and sends commands to the Arduino, which controls four DC motors to move the robot forward, backward, left, right or stop based on the command received. An IR sensor is also used for obstacle avoidance during backward movement.

Introduction:
The robot will be based on microcontroller Arduino Uno because of its versatile features
along with numerous advantages. The system will utilize Bluetooth technology and
Standard communication interface known as SPI interface. Bluetooth uses radio waves with
safe, less power consuming device to connect and exchange data between devices
without using of any kind of physical contact like wires and cable . SPI interface is a
synchronous serial information processutilized by microcontrollers for interacting along
with one or more peripheral devices swiftly through limited ranges.

Working Principle:
The movement of the proposed robot will be controlled by the voice command of the
user. The user will use an android operated smart phone to give voice command. The
command can be fetched using an app which will convert the voice command into text.
The phone will be connected to the microcontroller using a Bluetooth module. After
conversation of the voice command into text the app will send necessary data to the
microcontroller using Bluetooth of the phone and microcontroller will receive the data
using Bluetooth module. According to the command, the robot will move forward, backward,
left, right or fully autonomous. For driving the robot there will be four geared DC motors
with gripped tyre which will be operated by the help of DC motor driver. An ultrasonic sensor
will be employed for obstacle detection during autonomous mode. Arduino Uno will send
signals according to reading of the ultrasonic sensor to provide data about any obstacle in
front of the robot within a specific range. There will be a command for stopping the robot at
instan.

Components Required:
 Arduino Uno
 Arduino Cable
 Motor Driver Module (L293D)
 Motors – 4
 Robot Chassis
 Wheels – 4
 Proximity IR Sensor
 Bluetooth module (HC-05)
 Connecting wires
 18650 battery and connector
 DC Switch
 Arduino Mobile App
 Ultrasonic Sensor
 Servo Motor
Hardware Details:

Arduino Uno
Arduino is an Open-source-electronic-prototyping-base for simple used hardware and software
in the field of micro-controlling. Arduino Uno has 14 digital I/O pins and 6 analog I/O pins

L293D Motor Driver Module:


It is a motor driver which can provide bi-directional drive current for two motors. It is a 16 Pin
with 4 inputs from micro-controller and 4 output pins to the motors (2 each).

Circuit Diagram:
Working:

 This is a simplified version of any other voice control robot.


 No complex coding, easy to understand coding with simpler algorithm.
 Download Voice Control Arduino App to connect with Bluetooth module.
 The app is developed in such a way that it converts the voice command to text and
transfer the text to the connected Bluetooth device.
 The Bluetooth connected on the Arduino board receives text from the Android app as
characters and stored them as string to the assigned String.
 There are words pre-programmed (move forward, move backward, right , left and stop)
to the Arduino , whenever the received text matches with the pre-programmed words
,the Arduino executes the command that assigned to the words.
 Arduino can connect to Laptop to monitor serial communication and check the working
process and the words received by the Bluetooth.
