Path Following Robot
This course is for levelling up your robotics skills. Learning practically to code for Controlling a robot car with an Arduino board. Creating Path Following Robot System to automatically follow the black line on the surface.
About Path Following Robot
Our team had a different thought while working on IR sensors and world of applications. For anything or everything we are using ROBOTS, so why we can’t use them to make PATH FOLLOWER. We call it as “Sensor Controlled Robot”.What are you thinking while reading the name “Sensor Controlled Robot”??? Feeling like fairytale story, no, it’s real. This year team TECH CRYPTORS TRAINING ACADEMY comes with one more concept workshop where students will be able to control robot using their IR SENSORS, which will allow robot car to follow path automatically.
