S.no. Chapters Description

1 INTRODUCTION TO Start off your journey in the world of automation by

MICROCONTROLLER understanding the basics of computers and microcontrollers –
its processor, memory, input/output ports and many more !

2 INTRODUCTION TO Programming will no more be a complex task. Learn the

PROGRAMMING basics of coding your microcontroller in the Embedded C
language and kick-start by doing a simple activity of glowing
an LED

3 CONTROLLING AN LED No more electronic limitations – all your imaginations can be

put into action, now that you know programming. Control
your LED, make it glow, go off, blink fast, slow and whatever
comes to your mind !
4 ROBOT ASSEMBLY Finally, the part that you were waiting for. Assemble the
robot with the guidance of the video and get ready to start
your autonomous robots. Learn about another special shield
– the Auton Shield

5 CONTROLLING YOUR Creating functions is a vital programming knowledge. Learn to

ROBOT create functions for the different movements of your robot
and check the robot in action

6 SENSOR BASED ROBOT Your first autonomous robot – make your robot move when
MOVEMENTS there is no obstacle in front and stop once it sees an object.
Start small and smart.

7 OBSTACLE AVOIDER Like the driverless cars that are about to plunge onto our
roads soon? Why just look at it with awe – why not create
one? Start off with the basic concepts of obstacle avoiding –
the seeds to the big algorithms of such applications

8 LIGHT FOLLOWER Fire fighting robots? Solar Trackers? Well, it's the light
following concept. Learn the algorithms and the basics to
program your robot to search for light and find it !

9 WALL FOLLOWER Have a vacuum cleaning robot? Does it have a wall following
mode? Well, that is what you can do in this chapter. Learn the
concept of wall following robot and see it in action !

10 PIT AVOIDER Innovating wheel-chairs is a good thing! Preventing it from

falling in any pits, preventing it from hitting on anything are
small and useful automations – Learn the concept of pit
avoiding in this Chapter !

11 LINE FOLLOWER Line following is the most popular robot that are used in
industries today to perform tasks of transportation, material
handling and path mapping.

12 INTRODUCTION TO Serial communication is an important methodology of in the

SERIAL field of wireless control. Unlock 60+ unique controls on your
COMMUNICATION keyboard to control and command your microcontroller
 13 COMPUTER Control your robot through your computer – now you can
CONTROLLED ROBOT increase the speed, decrease it and unlock unimaginable
controls for your robot through serial communication.
