HOW TO MAKE LINE FOLLOWER ROBOT

A Line Follower Robot, as the name suggests, is an automated guided vehicle, which follow a black line Usually, the line is the path in which the line follower robot goes and it will be a black line on a white surface but the other way (white line on a black surface) is also possible.

In this blog i am  going to make a line follower robot using arduino  with adjustable speed.
Componets needed
1.arduino uno

2.l298 motor driver

3.7.4 volt li.ion battery


4.3*ir sensor modules
5.2*bo motors

6.wheels
Working of Arduino Line Follower Robot

​The working of the project is very simple bot will detect the black line on the surface and move along that line.

we need sensors to detect the line. For line detection logic, we used two IR Sensors, which consists of IR LED and Photo diode. They are placed in a reflective way i.e. side – by – side so that whenever they come in to white surface, the light emitted by IR LED will be detected by Photo diode . reflection of the white surface is high, the infrared light emitted by IR LED will be maximum reflected and will be detected by the Photo diode.

In case of black surface, which has a low reflection, the light gets completely absorbed by the black surface and doesn’t reach the photo diode.

Using the same principle, we will setup the IR Sensors on the Line Follower Robot such that the two IR Sensors are on the either side of the black line on the floor

How to make a android rover

ANDROID CONTROLLED ROBOT

hello friends... in this blog i am going to show you how to make a android controlled robot(car)
This is a smartphone controlled robot and very easy to make.
HOW DOES ANDROID CONTROLLED ROBOT WORKS
                                   The Android application controlled robot communicates via Bluetooth to the Bluetooth module present on the robot. While pressing each button on the application, corresponding commands are sent via Bluetooth to the robot. The commands that are sent are in the form of ASCII. The Arduino on the robot then checks the command received with its previously defined commands and controls the servo motors depending on the command received to cause it to move forward, backward, left, right or to stop

so lets start
Things  needed
1.arduino nano
Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring), and the Arduino Software (IDE), based on processing. Over the years Arduino has been the brain of thousands of projects, from everyday objects to complex scientific instruments. A worldwide community of makers - students, hobbyists, artists, programmers, and professionals - has gathered around this open-source platform, their contributions have added up to an incredible amount of accessible knowledge that can be of great help to novices and experts alike.
                     Arduino was born at the Ivrea Interaction Design Institute as an easy tool for fast prototyping, aimed at students without a background in electronics and programming. As soon as it reached a wider community, the Arduino board started changing to adapt to new needs and challenges, differentiating its offer from simple 8-bit boards to products for IOT applications, wearable, 3D printing, and embedded environments. All Arduino boards are completely open-source, empowering users to build them independently and eventually adapt them to their particular needs.
The software, too, is open-source, and it is growing through the contributions of users worldwide.
2.bluetooth module(HC-05 or HC-06)
HC-05 module is an easy to use Bluetooth SPP (Serial Port Protocol) module, designed for transparent wireless serial connection setup.
Serial port Bluetooth module is fully qualified Bluetooth V2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) 3Mbps Modulation with complete 2.4GHz radio transceiver and baseband. It uses CSR Bluecore 04-External single chip Bluetooth system with CMOS technology and with AFH(Adaptive Frequency Hopping Feature). It has the footprint as small as 12.7mmx27mm. Hope it will simplify your overall design/development cycle.

3.motor driver (L298 or L293D)
                                 The L298 is an integrated monolithic circuit in a 15-lead Multiwatt and PowerSO20 packages. It is a high voltage, high current dual full-bridge driver designed to accept standard TTL logic levels and drive inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, DC and stepping motors. Two enable inputs are provided to enable or disable the device independently of the input signals. The emitters of the lower transistors of each bridge are connected together and the corresponding external terminal can be used for the connection of an external sensing resistor. An additional supply input is provided so that the logic works at a 

4.2*BO MOTOR (with wheels)





                          Gear motors are primarily used to reduce speed in a series of gears, which in turn creates more torque. This is accomplished by an integrated series of gears or a gear box being attached to the main motor rotor and shaft via a second reduction shaft. The second shaft is then connected to the series of gears or gearbox to create what is known as a series of reduction gears. Generally speaking, the longer the train of reduction gears, the lower the output of the end, or final, gear will be.
                           For example, while the rotor spins at about 1500 revolutions per minute, the reduction gears allow the final secondhand gear to spin at only one revolution per minute. This is what allows the secondhand to make one complete revolution per minute on the face of the clock.
Gear Motors and Increased Force
                      Gear motors are commonly used in commercial applications where a piece of equipment needs to be able to exert a high amount of force in order to move a very heavy object. Examples of these types of equipment would include a crane or lift Jack.
                    If you've ever crane can be used to lift and move very heavy objects. The electric motor used in most cranes is a type of gear motor that uses the basic principles of speed reduction to increase torque or force.
                         Gear motors used in cranes are usually specialty types that use a very low rotational output speed to create incredible amounts of torque. However, the principles of the gear motor used in a crane are exactly the same as those used in the example electric time clock. The output speed of the rotor is reduced through a series of large gears until the rotating, RPM speed, of the final gear is very low. The low RPM speed helps to create a high amount of force which can be used to lift and move the heavy objects.
5.resistor(220 OHM)
6.batteris(2*18650 li-ion 3.7v )
A stable dc power supply is nesssory for the proper working of the electronic system.the required dc poweris obtained by two 18650 li-ion 2500mah batteries .but the microcontroller needs 5v to work correctly… so we added a 5v regulator . that is a lm7805 used.

                        At the beginning of defined a pins that will be used to control the motors. Further - pins are grouped into two arrays, both left and right motor respectively. To control each motor via the driver chip L298N necessary to use three signals: two discrete, the rotating direction of the motor, and one analog, determining the rotational speed. Calculation this pins we have engaged in the function Wheel. The input to the function is passed a pointer of pin's array selected motor and the speed of rotation as a signed value from -100 to 100. If you value of speed is 0, the motor is switched off.
                      In a predetermined function setup configured are outputs pins. For analog signal used pins, which can operate as a PWM converters. This pins 9 and 10, they do not require configured in the IDE Arduino.
                              In a predetermined function loop in each iteration of program calling the handler RemoteXY library. Further there is the control of LED, then controls the motors. For motor control read the joystick coordinates X and Y from fields structure of RemoteXY. Based on the coordinates is operation to calculate the speed of each motor, and call function Wheel, is set the speed of the motor. These calculations are performed in each cycle of the program, ensuring continuous control calculations pins of motors based on the coordinates of the joystick.
