LEGO NXT Robot Idea


our idea that we are working on is a line follower robot. The robot is going to follow a dark line using the light sensor, and is going to stop when it senses an obstacle.

hopefully, we can add more complex features if you have time..

  2. Line Runner:
    Problem definition:
    Our robot idea is to search for a dark line using light sensor and runaway from it. Robot will run away whenever it detecte line by going backward.

    Assumbtion:
    Line Runner Robot works in a normal environment, and with dark lines.

    Robot Design:
    To solve this problem we needed to make use of:

    1. One light sensors.
    2. Four wheels.

    The light sensors are connected upside-down on front of the vehicle close to the ground.

  3. Evaluation Method:

    Three are two behaviours to implement:
    • Move Backward.
    • Search for dark lines.

    Challenge:

    When robot searches for dark line, unfortunately use to rotates around itself, instead of rotating in fix angle.

    Going backward with a sharp turn.

    Future Improvements:

    By working on this project, we found that we could improve our robot behavior by having the robot to avoid obstacle in reverse and running away when it detects itself in the mirror.
