Abstract:
Many mobile robots require an operator‘s vision and intelligence for guidance and navigation. Animals use sensory systems such as hearing, and tactile to move freely through their environment. The aim of this project is to compete in intersection robotic challenge (microRunner). A mobile robot that consists of 2 Dc geared motors that been employed at 6 legs. 3 legs contains 1 DC geared motors, one for X-axis and one for Y-axis. A PIC Microcontroller has been implemented to act as a brain for the robot that controls the walking and turning algorithm. Infrared sensor was also developed to act as an eye to the system and tells the brain about existence of obstacle in front. As a result, the obstacle avoidance legged robot system is been successfully developed to compete among all the students that taking part in this competition.But there is a certain limitation for the robot such as the wideness of the area, type of obstacle and surface.
