Line Tracking Proximity Sensor

The document describes a line tracking proximity sensor robot that uses IR sensors and a microcontroller to follow a black line on a white surface. The robot has four main blocks: IR sensors to detect the line, an Arduino UNO microcontroller that processes sensor input and controls the motor driver chip, an L293D motor driver that controls two geared motors, and the motors themselves. The robot is programmed to follow the black line and can be used for industrial or hospital applications to automate transport tasks.

INTRODUCTION:-

• Mankind is habituated to seek comfort. Concept of line following


proximity sensor robot which will be functioned following a particular line,
may help an industry to attenuate the labor cost or may alternatives of the
labors.
• We have accumulated a line follower robot which will be able to track a
certain path then carry objects to the defined place by following a
predefined line.
BLOCK DIAGRAM OF PROJECT

The line follower robot built in this project is divided into 4 blocks. The
following image shows the block diagram for line follower robot.
• Sensors(IR) :-
We have used IR sensor module as line detecting sensor for the project.
It consists of an IR LED and a photo diode & other components like
comparator , LED etc.
• Controller ( Arduino UNO) :-
Arduino UNO is the main controller in project. The data from sensors
will be given to arduino and it gives corresponding signals to motor driver IC.
• Motor Driver(L293D) :-
L293D motor driver IC is used to drive the motors of the robot . It
recieves the signals from arduino based on the info from IR sensors.
• Motors(Geared Motors) :-
We have used two geared motors at the rear of the line following
robot. These motors provide more torque than normal motors & can be used
for carrying some load as well.
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

• The below figure is a line tracking proximity sensor circuit diagram.


COMPONENTS REQUIRED

• ARDUINO UNO :-
It is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P.
The board has 14 Digital pins, 6 Analog pins & programmable
Arduino IDE via USB cable.
• L293D MOTOR DRIVER IC :-
L293D is a typical motor driver which allows dc motor to
drive on either direction. It is 16 pin IC. You can control two dc motor with a
single L293D IC.
• GEARED MOTORS :-
A gearmotor is a single component that integrates a gear
Reducer with either an ac or dc electric motor. Gear motors can deliver high
torque at low horsepower or low speed.
• ROBOT CHASSIS :-
A chassis is the frame work of an artificial object, which
supports the object in its construction & use.
• IR SENSORS :-
The IR sensors are sensors that detect infrared radiation.
And that uses the property of IR radiation to detect the changes
In surrounding.
• BLACK TAPE :-
The visual line(black tape) is the path in which the line follower
robot goes and it will be a black line on a white surface.
• CONNECTING WIRES:-
These are used to connect the different parts in the motor.
• POWER SUPPLY :-
This is used to give power supply to the motor for moving in
clockwise and anticlockwise direction.
WORKING PROCEDURE
• Algorithm for a line tracking proximity sensor.
• The line following robot is one of the self-operating robots. That detects
and follows a line drawn on the area.
• The line is indicated by white line on a black surface or black line on white
surface. This system must be sense by the line.
• This application is depends upon the sensors. That is proximity sensor and
IR sensor.
• The proximity sensor is used for the path detection.
• IR sensor is used for the obstacle detection.
• These sensors are mounted at front end of the robot.
• The microcontroller is an intelligent device the whole circuit is controlled
by the micro controller.

This is the brief explanation of the line following proximity


sensor.
CODE
APPLICATIONS :-
• Industrial automated equipment carriers.
• Automated cars.
• Tour guides in museums and other similar applications.
• Deliver the mail within the office building.
• Deliver medications in a hospital.
ADVANTAGES :-
• The robot must be capable of following a line.
• It should be capable of taking various degrees of turns.
• The color of line must not be a factor as long as it is darker than the
surroundings.
DISADVANTAGES :-
• Higher utility cost.
• Requires huge amount of financial investment.
• Low availability.
